It is a meticulously researched volume that throws light on the diverse protests that swept Russia in the wake of the 2011 Duma election. While they failed to prevent Putin's return to the presidency, the protests may well have heralded potentially momentous social change.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e Josephine von Zitzewitz, University of Cambridge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eProtest in Putin’s Russia\u003c\/i\u003e combines stirring reportage with conceptual sophistication, taking readers into sites of protest not only in Moscow but in cities across Russia.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe New York Review of Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"...an extremely important and rare contribution to the scholarship on social movements and political mobilisation in Russia and around the world\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEurope-Asia Studies\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 1.
