Viktor Baranets is a very well known specialist on the Russian military. For this reason, I was quite interested in reading the new book on the Russian military that he has co-written with Mikhail Timoshenko, his co-host for a military-themed radio show at Komsomolskaia Pravda radio.

维克多·巴拉涅茨是一位非常有名的俄罗斯军事专家。出于这个原因，我很有兴趣阅读他与米哈伊尔·季莫申科(Mikhail Timoshenko)合著的关于俄罗斯军事的新书，季莫申科是他在共青团真理报电台(Komsomolskaia Pravda radio)联合主持的一个军事主题广播节目。这本书的名字叫阿米娅·罗西:扎什奇尼察?今年早些时候在莫斯科出版的Kak my snimali Serdiukova。尽管书名颇具挑衅性，但这本书还是令人大失其望。在它的412页中…

In Russia as elsewhere, military journalists and war correspondents find themselves at the heart of the tensions between the discipline and confidentiality required in military matters and the independence and openness required by the media. Their task is to inform society and shape public opinion, but they are also bound by the rules of the armed forces in situations where their own safety is at stake and a war of information is often being waged alongside the war on the ground.

One of the book's main points of interest, which greatly distinguishes it from the bulk of works on Chechnya that have been published in the last few years, is to show the different stages of the wars, including truces, sudden changes of direction, changes in tactics, lessons learned from var...

During the Soviet time, military journalism was part of the army command. After the fall of the USSR, part of the profession gained autonomy as corps specialized in military affairs fed by the various scandals concerning the army (such as dedovshchina, recurring problems regarding the payment of the soldiers). From the years 2000, this polarization of military journalism has increased. On the one hand, the young generations are more porous to the army’s activities of communication and public relations to which they contribute. They are less concerned with providing accurate information. The creation by the Russian Ministry of Defense of its own TV channel Zvezda (The Star) is a striking illustration of this kind of institutional journalism. On the other hand, some journalists develop an investigative journalism and are concerned with revealing financial and political affairs that affect the army. Military journalism is thus increasingly torn between two distinct spheres, which have two different conceptions of the profession.

This article aims to present the evolutions of the military journal Zarubezhnoe voennoe obozrenie (ZVO)’s life during the perestroika years (1985-1991). The journal’s main mission was to picture the state of Western armed forces, using data collected in the Western press. Recent historical researches carried after the crushing of the Soviet State have shown that journalists or policy analysts in contact with foreign sources participated in the opening of Soviet media landscape and produced a new and less ideological discourse. The purpose is therefore to determine if the same applies to ZVO’s journalists. Considering the general context of glasnost and the journal’s close contacts to Western sources, was ZVO in the vanguard of the change process affecting military journalism in Soviet Union? Or did it remain a bastion of tradition?
