Cracking Open the Kremlin

The BBC World Service has done a number of radio documentaries on Russia and Putin. The Kremlin and the World is a four part series on Russia’s relationship with its “near abroad,” energy politics, Europe, and the United States. The second series, After the KGB, chronicles the fall and rise of the Russian secret service since the collapse of communism. In addition to all this, BBC has set up a special website called the Putin Project. Therein are several reports and interviews on the social, cultural, political, and economic state of Russia. You can also find more Russia goodies on BBC News‘ Resurgent Russia page.
Now that your ears are sufficiently stimulated, you can get your eyes titillated with PBS Frontline’s special report Putin’s Plan.

The Frontline report sucked, despite the flashy production value. I want my 20 minutes back…
It did suck. I was hesitant to even mention it, but I felt that I could at least point it out and let people make up their own minds. It’s too bad because Frontline usually does good work, at least when it comes to American politics. But this was just bad.
