Russia-watchers are growing increasingly concerned about the Putin government. They point to recent events that indicate Russia may have gone as far as it will go with liberalization, and that chances are good it will pull back from recent reforms. Top political analyst Shevtsova describes some of the forces behind the rumors and the worries and places them in a wider context, starting with Putin's taking advantage of the Bank of New York scandal. She then traces his career to the moment in which Putin worked himself into the enviable position of facing a presidential election without a rival. As Shevtsova continues to examine Putin's motives and politics, it becomes increasingly clear that Putin, despite the perception that he is in favor of progress, is actually in favor of power, preferably his own, in all situations and at all costs.
