The book explores the interplay between crony capitalism and democratic institutions in post-communist Russia, highlighting how this combination has shaped the nation's political landscape. Gulnaz Sharafutdinova argues that, contrary to expectations, elections and political competition have failed to foster genuine government accountability or responsiveness. Instead, the dominance of informal elite groups in policymaking has undermined the value of democratic institutions, leading to their discreditation and a reliance on state favoritism over market dynamics for wealth accumulation.
