Russia’s “Conservative Turn” after 2012: Evidence from the European Social Survey
June 4, 2021 | 18.30
ZOOM
Russian politics is often described as having taken a “conservative turn” since the start of Putin’s third term. This refers to the rise in the political influence of the Russian Orthodox Church, the ideological shift to traditional values, and the growth of authoritarianism. This study aims to explore ordinary Russians’ commitment to this conservatism using data from European Social Survey, 2010-2018. I suggest a four-factor model for measuring popular conservatism in Russia: Loyalism, Conformity, Religiosity, and Traditionalism/Security. I then reveal a surge in conservative attitudes in 2014-2016 and a steady decline thereafter. Finally, I explore the factors that explain conservatism on the individual level. I conclude that the “conservative turn” policy has only been a partial success due to a mismatch between official discourse and popular attitudes.
Working languages: Russian / English.
Seminar will be online via Zoom.
