Despre regimul politic din Rusia lui Putin
About Putin’s political regime in Russia

Summary/Abstract: The Putin regime stands out through the support of the population for the elected leader (at least formally under democratic conditions), the emergence and strengthening of the hierarchical subordination mechanism of the state authorities in relation to the central power (mechanism known in the specialized literature under the name “vertical of power”), creation of a hegemonic party, United Russia, which dominates the political scene and, not least, by maintaining the same authoritarian-electoral practices as in the 1990s, meaning incorrect elections marked by massive electoral frauds, endemic corruption, selective enforcement of laws, thus so as to benefit the power, increasing the degree of repression applied by the regime to all opponents, political parties, journalists, civic activists, oligarchs, and the subordination of the most important institutions to the Kremlin: the parliament, the justice system, the business sector, the media and NGOs.
