摘要

摘要：学者们经常将俄罗斯最近的重新独裁归咎于个别领导人的错误：叶利钦或普京。这篇文章对这些说法表示怀疑。相反，它认为，在苏联解体后，俄罗斯经历的不是民主过渡，而是国家（现任能力）的暂时削弱。这一点可以从缺乏精英轮换和保留过去俄罗斯政治制度的正式和非正式机构中得到证明。因此，随后俄罗斯政治的重新独裁只是时间问题。

Why Russia’s Democracy Never Began

Abstract:Scholars often blame Russia”s recent re-autocratization on mistakes of individual leaders: Yeltsin or Putin. This essay casts doubt on such accounts. It argues instead that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia experienced not a democratic transition but a temporary weakening of the state (incumbent capacity). This is evidenced by a lack of elite rotation and the preservation of the same type of formal and informal institutions that characterized Russia’s political system in the past. Accordingly, subsequent re-autocratization of Russian politics was just a matter of time.
