New Eastern Europe | Issue 2 (III) - 2012
The spring 2012 issue of New Eastern Europe takes a closer look at the potential consequences of Vladimir Putin’s return to the Kremlin with a series of analyses examining the situation in Russia and the new challenges that await Vladimir Putin as he returns to the Russian presidency.
The issue also features an exclusive text by David Kramer and Susan Corke of Freedom House. Writing for New Eastern Europe, they make the case for further action with Belarus; warning that if the West does not act soon, it will be too late. Similarly, the description of the state of Hungary’s democracy by political journalist Thomas Escritt, shows the vulnerability of a political system in the region, which has long been viewed as being stable.
In addition, this issue includes a special section providing a holistic view of the economic situation in the region as a result of the economic crisis. The block is opened by a text from World Bank Economists and includes texts on the Baltic States, Slovakia, Hungary, Belarus, Ukraine, Russia and the South Caucasus.
A film review of Agnieszka Holland’s In Darkness and reviews of the most recent books on and from around the region conclude the issue.
