Examines the emergence of Russian ethnonationalism under President Vladimir Putin. Discussion opens with a look at the ideological changes in Russian nationalism between the periods of perestroika & Putin's second term. The development of ethno-xenophobia is discussed, highlighting the discourse of "migrantophobia," arguing that this became the dominating idea & the main means of propaganda. Attention is then given to various federal-level nationalistic organizations, eg, political parties, the Nazi skinhead movement, & the Movement against Illegal Immigration.

In closing, the prospect of a nationalist, ie, fascist, political victory in Russia is considered. D. Edelman
