The Competing and Paradoxical Identities in the Narratives of Twenty-First-Century Russian Leaders

Vasilisa Takoeva and Sharon Turnbull

Chapter 15 in Worldly Leadership, 2012, pp 257-283 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter presents findings from research that has explored the competing identities of modern Russian leaders. It aims to identify leaders’ values and beliefs, and deconstruct how these have been shaped by their personal experiences and the wider historical (political, social and cultural) context. The analysis is based on the stories of 26 interviewees – fourteen business leaders, eight social activists and four political leaders – obtained between December 2009 and January 2010.
