This article addresses the question of how the Crimean case relates to Russia’s general understanding of territorial questions and border regimes. We examine the historical evolution of Russian discourse on borders and territorial questions and investigate to what extent they can explain Russia’s decision to annex Crimea. We will look into the principles of inviolability of borders and territorial integrity that sustain the status quo, and how this has been challenged by three partly interlinked doctrines: national self-determination, geopolitics, and historical rights. We argue that the discourse on territorial integrity and the status quo has predominated in Russia since the Cold War, and that this has not changed fundamentally, either before or after the annexation of Crimea. Russia does not seem to want to abolish the existing norms altogether or to advocate any clearly articulated reformist agenda. Rather, it picks and chooses arguments on an ad hoc basis, imitating Western positions in some other cases when departing from the basic norm of the status quo. Hence, we claim that Russia’s territorial revisionism is reactive, self-serving, and constrained by the desire to avoid changing the status quo doctrine to any great extent.
本文探讨了克里米亚案件与俄罗斯对领土问题和边境制度的总体理解之间的关系。我们研究了俄罗斯关于边界和领土问题的话语的历史演变,并调查了它们在多大程度上可以解释俄罗斯吞并克里米亚的决定。我们将研究维持现状的边界不可侵犯和领土完整原则,以及这一原则如何受到三种部分相互关联的学说的挑战:民族自决、地缘政治和历史权利。我们认为,自冷战以来,关于领土完整和现状的讨论在俄罗斯占主导地位,无论是在吞并克里米亚之前还是之后,这种情况都没有根本改变。俄罗斯似乎不想完全废除现有规范,也不想提倡任何明确的改革议程。相反,它在特定的基础上挑选论点,在其他一些情况下,当偏离现状的基本准则时,模仿西方的立场。因此,我们声称,俄罗斯的领土修正主义是被动的、自私的,并受到在很大程度上避免改变现状学说的愿望的约束。

Russian Neo-Revisionism 俄罗斯新修正主义

A revisionist state would seek to challenge the existing balance of power in the system and threaten the foundations of the system itself. This does not apply to contemporary Russia. It seeks to enhance its status within the existing framework of international society. Russian neo-revisionism does not attempt to create new rules or to advance an alternative model of the international system but to ensure the universal and consistent application of existing norms. Russia’s neo-revisionism represents a critique of western practices in defense of the universal proclaimed principles. It is not the principles of international law and governance that Russia condemns but the practices that accompany their implementation. This reflected Russia’s broader perception in the post-Cold War era that it was locked into a strategic stalemate, and that the country was forced into a politics of resistance. This has taken many forms, including the creation of an anti-hegemonic alignment with China and others. For Moscow, it was the West that had become revisionist, not Russia. Although the implementation of applicable norms was patchy, Russia did not repudiate them. In its relations with the European Union, Russia’s neo-revisionist stance means that it was unable to become simply the passive recipient of eu norms, and instead tried to become a co-creator of Europe’s destiny. The struggle is not only over contested norms, but also over who has the prerogative to claim their norms as universal. However, it was precisely at the level of practices that there was least room for compromise, and thus Russian neo-revisionism became another form of the impasse, and only intensified tensions between Russia and the Atlantic system.
修正主义国家将试图挑战体制中现有的权力平衡,并威胁体制本身的基础。这不适用于当代俄罗斯。它寻求在现有的国际社会框架内提高其地位。俄罗斯的新修正主义并不试图创造新规则或推进国际体系的替代模式,而是确保普遍和一致地适用现有规范。俄罗斯的新修正主义代表了对西方捍卫普遍原则的做法的批判。俄罗斯谴责的不是国际法和治理原则,而是伴随这些原则实施的做法。这反映了俄罗斯在后冷战时代的更广泛看法,即它陷入了战略僵局,该国被迫陷入抵抗政治。这采取了多种形式,包括与中国和其他国家建立反霸权主义联盟。对莫斯科来说,是西方变成了修正主义者,而不是俄罗斯。尽管适用规范的执行情况参差不齐,但俄罗斯并没有否定这些规范。在与欧盟的关系中,俄罗斯的新修正主义立场意味着它不能简单地成为欧盟规范的被动接受者,而是试图成为欧洲命运的共同创造者。这场斗争不仅涉及有争议的规范,还涉及谁有权宣称其规范具有普遍性。然而,正是在实践层面上,妥协的余地最小,因此俄罗斯的新修正主义成为了另一种形式的僵局,只会加剧俄罗斯与大西洋体系之间的紧张关系。

Role Conceptions and Belligerent Foreign Policy: Why Russia is Remaking the International Order 角色观念与好战外交政策:为什么俄罗斯正在重塑国际秩序

An ever-growing body of scholarship on Russian foreign policy focuses attention to redefining concepts such as sovereignty and power. Aggressive and successful Russian foreign policy initiatives in the last decade give urgency and relevancy to such initiatives, from invading Georgia to deploying an aircraft carrier to support ground operations in Syria. While these proactive Russian foreign policies may characterize a reclamation of Russia’s great power status in the international community, I argue that the goal of Russia’s foreign policy is to create a new system, not beholden to the u.s.-led Western world. By undermining the legitimacy of Western style democracy and pushing the boundaries of existing norms in the international community, Russian President Vladimir Putin offers a new construct for international relations: the polycentric world order. Using Role Theory, I discuss the domestic and international pressures on the Russian state to create its identity and the evolution of Russian roles in previous international systems. Formal leader statements and official policy documents provide evidence of the changing roles Russia plays in the international arena, while role theory provides an explanatory context for the purpose of new Russian foreign policy.
越来越多的关于俄罗斯外交政策的学术机构将注意力集中在重新定义主权和权力等概念上。俄罗斯在过去十年中积极而成功的外交政策举措使这些举措具有紧迫性和相关性,从入侵格鲁吉亚到部署航空母舰支持在叙利亚的地面行动。虽然这些积极主动的俄罗斯外交政策可能是俄罗斯在国际社会大国地位的恢复,但我认为,俄罗斯外交政策的目标是建立一个新的体系,而不是受制于美国领导的西方世界。俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京破坏了西方民主的合法性,突破了国际社会现有规范的界限,为国际关系提供了一个新的结构:多中心世界秩序。运用角色理论,我讨论了俄罗斯国家为创造其身份而面临的国内外压力,以及俄罗斯在以往国际体系中角色的演变。正式的领导人声明和官方政策文件为俄罗斯在国际舞台上扮演的角色的变化提供了证据,而角色理论为俄罗斯新外交政策的目的提供了解释性的背景。

An Indispensable Party of Power? United Russia and Putin’s Return to the Presidency, 2011–14 不可或缺的执政党?统一俄罗斯党与普京重返总统宝座,2011 - 2014

United Russia (ur), which has served as one of the pillars of Russian authoritarianism, experienced a radical decline in its support around the time of Putin’s return to Presidency. In this study, I examine the regime’s responses to the declining support for ur by focusing on the nuanced relationship between the regime and ur. Especially important in this context is that ur can be characterized as a “party of power” that is embedded in the political system; this allows the regime to be opportunistic toward the party, but there is also a limitation in the extent that the regime can distance itself from the party. I demonstrate that the regime took various measures, including the creation of the All-Russia People’s Front (onf) to escape the ire of voters; however, the range of responses adopted did not lead to the replacement of ur.
一直是俄罗斯威权主义支柱之一的统一俄罗斯党在普京重返总统宝座前后,其支持率急剧下降。在这项研究中,我通过关注政权和ur之间微妙的关系,来研究政权对ur支持率下降的反应。在这种背景下,特别重要的是,我们可以被描述为嵌入政治体系的“权力政党”;这使得该政权可以对该党投机取巧,但该政权与该党保持距离的程度也有限制。我证明,该政权采取了各种措施,包括成立全俄罗斯人民阵线以躲避选民的愤怒;然而,所采取的回应范围并没有导致ur的替代。

The 2018 Russian presidential election was effectively a contest not between Vladimir Putin and the other seven candidates on the ballot paper, but between Putin and the level of election turnout. Anything less than a large majority based on a respectable level of turnout would have undermined Putin’s legitimacy to serve for a further six-year term. In the event, Putin achieved his goal. Through the analysis of public opinion polls conducted by the Levada Center, we examine the background to the election. Putin’s success can be traced, first to long-standing patterns of differential turnout across the regions and, second, administrative initiatives by the election authorities which created a renewed confidence in the integrity of the election process.
2018年俄罗斯总统选举实际上不是弗拉基米尔·普京和选票上的其他七位候选人之间的竞争,而是普京和选举投票率之间的竞争。基于可观的投票率,任何低于多数票的情况都会破坏普京连任六年的合法性。在这次活动中,普京实现了他的目标。通过对莱瓦达中心进行的民意调查的分析,我们考察了此次选举的背景。普京的成功首先可以追溯到各地区长期存在的投票率差异模式,其次是选举当局的行政举措,这些举措重新树立了人们对选举过程完整性的信心。

Bastions of Tradition: The Ethnic Factor and Political Machines in Russian Regions 传统的堡垒:俄罗斯地区的民族因素与政治机器

The regional machines created by the Russian governors in the mid-1990s turned out to be most effective in the ethnic republics. This phenomenon is supported by several facts, with the primary as follows: the density of the patronage networks among the rural ethnic minorities, and the economic heritage of the Soviet period and ethnical institutionalization. These factors allowed regional elites to integrate ethnic minorities into the clientelism structure to distribute symbolic and material benefits in exchange for their electoral support. However, at present, the federal authorities have considerably reduced the autonomy of the ethnic republics and deprived them of many ethnic preferences. Basing on the analysis of the electoral statistics from the Russian Presidential Election of 2018, this article researches the political consequences caused by the changed relationship between the center and the regions, as well as the changes in functioning of regional political machines in the circumstances where the governors’ institutional and resource autonomy has been reduced. The data analysis allowed for the discovery of the diversified electoral behavior of ethnic minorities in different republics. The reasons for the above diversification have been explained based on a comparative analysis of five case studies (the Republic of Bashkortostan, the Republic of Tatarstan, the Komi Republic, the Chuvash Republic, and the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia)).
事实证明,上世纪90年代中期由俄罗斯州长创建的地区性机构在各少数民族共和国最为有效。这一现象得到了几个事实的支持,其中最主要的是:农村少数民族庇护网络的密度,以及苏联时期的经济遗产和种族制度化。这些因素使得地区精英能够将少数民族纳入庇护主义结构,以分配象征和物质利益来换取他们的选举支持。但是,目前联邦当局大大减少了各族裔共和国的自治权,剥夺了它们的许多族裔优先权。本文通过对2018年俄罗斯总统选举统计数据的分析,研究了中央与地方关系变化所带来的政治后果,以及在州长制度和资源自治权被削弱的情况下,区域政治机器的运行变化。通过数据分析,可以发现不同共和国少数民族的选举行为存在差异。根据对五个案例研究(巴什科尔托斯坦共和国、鞑靼斯坦共和国、科米共和国、楚瓦什共和国和萨哈共和国(雅库特))的比较分析,解释了上述多样化的原因。

Mass Mobilization in China and Russia: From Unexpected Victories to Unintended Consequences 中俄群众动员:从意外胜利到意外后果

Despite the increasingly authoritarian atmosphere in Russia and China, mass protests in both countries are pervasive, including protest motivated by environmental grievances. Existing scholarship often focuses on the sources, spread, or volume of mass mobilization, but few examine how civil society actors themselves evaluate the tactic. How does the state respond to environmentally-motivated mass mobilization? In light of the state’s response, how have activists altered their approach to mass mobilization over time? Using case studies and interviews, I find that Russian and Chinese environmental groups approach mass mobilization in distinct ways. Over time, Russian activists have increasingly turned to mass tactics, including coordinated regional protest. Meanwhile, Chinese ENGOs have reduced their formal involvement in such campaigns, limiting visible horizontal linkages between environmental groups. These approaches are shaped by the different historical legacies of mass mobilization in either country, which also shape state perceptions of the threat posed by environmental activism.
尽管俄罗斯和中国的独裁气氛越来越浓,但两国的大规模抗议活动普遍存在,包括出于环境不满的抗议活动。现有的学术界通常关注大规模动员的来源、传播或数量,但很少有人研究民间社会行为者自己如何评估这种策略。国家如何应对以环境为动机的大规模动员?鉴于该州的反应,随着时间的推移,活动人士是如何改变他们的大规模动员方式的?通过案例研究和访谈,我发现俄罗斯和中国的环保组织以不同的方式对待群众动员。随着时间的推移,俄罗斯活动人士越来越多地转向大规模策略,包括协调地区抗议。与此同时,中国环保组织减少了对此类活动的正式参与,限制了环保组织之间可见的横向联系。这些方法是由两国群众动员的不同历史遗产形成的,这也影响了国家对环境行动主义构成的威胁的看法。

Introduction 介绍
IF 0.8 Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2018-11-08 DOI: 10.1163/2451-8921-00304001
Alfred B. Evans, E. Bindman
This article serves as an introduction to this special issue on recent developments in civil society organization and strategies in Russia. Despite the widespread assumption that the increased restrictions placed on NGO activity by the state in recent years have hampered their ability to operate, we argue that civil society in Russia continues to show signs of vitality. This is demonstrated by the fact that protests by ordinary Russians have grown and have often led to the formation of new groups and movements which have had some success in campaigning on specific issues. As the articles in this special issue highlight, one of the key tools affecting whether or not such movements can be successful in achieving their aims is that of framing. When organizations are able to frame the issue they are campaigning on in such a way as to resonate with ordinary people and avoid directly challenging the balance of power within Russia’s political system, they tend to enjoy more success than those groups which tend to take a more confrontational stance and thus face greater pushback and sanction from the authorities. This serves to highlight that NGOs and other civil society groups in Russia employ a range of different strategies and enjoy very different relationships with the authorities as a result.
这篇文章介绍了俄罗斯民间社会组织和战略的最新发展。尽管人们普遍认为,近年来国家对非政府组织活动的限制越来越大,阻碍了它们的运作能力,但我们认为,俄罗斯民间社会继续显示出活力的迹象。这一点可以从以下事实中得到证明:普通俄罗斯人的抗议活动不断增加,并经常导致新的团体和运动的形成,这些团体和运动在特定问题上的竞选活动中取得了一些成功。正如本期特刊中的文章所强调的那样,影响这些运动能否成功实现其目标的关键工具之一是框架。当组织能够以与普通人产生共鸣的方式来阐述他们正在竞选的问题,并避免直接挑战俄罗斯政治体系内的权力平衡时,他们往往比那些倾向于采取更具对抗性立场的团体更成功,从而面临当局更大的抵制和制裁。这突出表明,俄罗斯的非政府组织和其他民间社会团体采用了一系列不同的战略,因此与当局的关系也截然不同。

Despite the widespread assumption that the increased restrictions placed on NGO activity by the state in recent years have hampered their ability to operate, we argue that civil society in Russia continues to show signs of vitality. This is demonstrated by the fact that protests by ordinary Russians have grown and have often led to the formation of new groups and movements which have had some success in campaigning on specific issues. As the articles in this special issue highlight, one of the key tools affecting whether or not such movements can be successful in achieving their aims is that of framing.

With more than one million people living with HIV, Russia is facing the biggest HIV epidemic in Europe and is one of the few countries in the world where infection rates are increasing. The response to the epidemic is shaped by the way Russian state actors and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) view the issue of HIV and how they define policy priorities.In order to understand the factors that underlie HIV policies in Russia, this contribution analyses the framing of HIV. It thereby makes use of framing theory. Based on document analysis and interviews with NGO experts, the article differentiates between four main framings in Russia: the framing of HIV as a medical issue, as a security threat, as a moral problem or as a human rights concern.In Russia, the moral framing of HIV has become dominant over the past decade. The epidemic is increasingly viewed as the result of harmful influences from the West which need to be overcome. As a result, Russia has departed from evidence-based approaches to HIV. Instead, it solely focuses on strengthening so-called “traditional values”, e.g. by engaging in healthy lifestyle promotion. The moral framing of HIV has also impacted the mobilization potential of Russian NGOs, as it favour those organizations that relate to the dominant framing of HIV and support government priorities.
俄罗斯有100多万艾滋病毒感染者,正面临着欧洲最大的艾滋病毒疫情,也是世界上少数几个感染率不断上升的国家之一。俄罗斯国家行为者和非政府组织看待艾滋病毒问题的方式以及他们如何确定政策优先事项,决定了对这一流行病的反应。为了了解俄罗斯艾滋病毒政策背后的因素,本文分析了艾滋病毒的框架。从而运用了框架理论。根据文件分析和对非政府组织专家的采访,文章区分了俄罗斯的四个主要框架:将艾滋病毒视为医疗问题、安全威胁、道德问题或人权问题。在俄罗斯,艾滋病毒的道德框架在过去十年中占主导地位。这种流行病越来越被视为来自西方的有害影响的结果,需要加以克服。因此,俄罗斯偏离了以证据为基础的艾滋病毒防治方法。相反,它只专注于加强所谓的“传统价值观”,例如通过促进健康的生活方式。艾滋病毒的道德框架也影响了俄罗斯非政府组织的动员潜力,因为它有利于那些与艾滋病毒主流框架有关并支持政府优先事项的组织。
