Russia is trapped by its past as the former Soviet hegemon. Robert Service's new book Kremlin winter reflects his record as an authoritative historian of the Soviet era. Sergei Medvedev's background as a professor in the Faculty of Social Sciences at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow gives him a different experience of Russia. Both authors offer thought-provoking, and in some ways competing, analyses of the country as it now is and what it may become.
