How to keep your frontend application code under control
When you are developing a complex frontend application it's code may become confusing and hard to understand. Simply because most of the time you don't have time to write "clean" code and document everything you write. Even if you are working in a big team with well established development processes it's sometimes hard to get in touch with some parts of an application. Especially for newer developers. Usually splitting your code by modules can solve this problem.
Will Russia cancel its next elections? – Riddle Russia
Sources in the Russian government — quoted on March 4 by Meduza’s special correspondent, Andrey Pertsev — claimed that due to Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine, the government may suggest pushing back elections set for September 11. This would affect fourteen gubernatorial elections, six regional legislative elections, eleven elections to municipal councils, and elections to Moscow’s district councils.
The price of protest in Chechnya – Riddle Russia
The transition into the new year has been a busy one for Chechen strongman Ramzan Kadyrov. His agenda has been suffused with calls for a Chechen invasion of Ukraine; resurgent claims against Ingushetia; and an end of the year kidnapping campaign targeting dissidents’ families. While this may sound like business as usual for Kadyrov, these actions form a reactionary policy of distraction and repression. But what are they in reaction to?
‘Fortress’ Plan - Riddle Russia
The Russian law governing the country’s polity is undergoing changes this very moment. The purpose of these changes is not political reform but consolidation of the existing political system. It is like being on a treadmill: running to stay in the same place.
Not only the carrot and the stick: civil society management in Putin’s Russia – Riddle Russia
One of the most shocking decisions of late 2021 was the court order to shut Russia’s oldest civil rights group, Memorial, for failing to comply with the requirements pertaining to a non-profit organisation listed as a foreign agent. According to OVD-Info (itself classified as an unregistered civil association acting as a foreign agent), in late 2021, 220 non-profit organisations, 4 associations, 67 individuals and 36 media outlets were listed as foreign agents.
The worst year in the history of post-Soviet Russia – Riddle Russia
The year 2021 has seen an encroachment on human rights that is unprecedented in the post-Soviet history of Russia and which can be traced both in new laws and law enforcement practice. Let us highlight the most dangerous setbacks that occurred in this regard in the course of the year coming to an end. Legal amendments Individuals and unregistered non-profit organisations were added to the already-existing categories of ‘foreign agents’.
Media in 2021: it’s about to get worse – Riddle Russia
Looking back on the year 2021, one has to separate emotions from facts. If you don’t, negative emotions gain the upper hand and make rational analysis impossible. EMOTIONS: To paraphrase Karamzin, developments in the Russian media space in 2021 can be described with a single word: ‘crackdown’.
One year in the life of a consolidated personalist dictatorship – Riddle Russia
Milan Svolik, a professor at Yale University, writes in his book The Politics of Authoritarian Rule that all dictators face two fundamental challenges: to control the elites they rule with and to restrain the masses from expressing public discontent with the regime. As regards the problem of power-sharing, Vladimir Putin took an important step in 2020.
The Language of a Successful Dictator: How to Remain Popular Without Ending Repressions – Riddle Russia
The sociologist Norman Fairclough wrote: ‘Such disputes are sometimes seen as merely preliminaries to or outgrowths from the real processes and practices of politics. What I am suggesting is that they are not: they are politics.’ Vladimir Putin apparently realised this long ago and has been very successful at such disputes. In fact, one could write a textbook on his speeches titled The Language of a Successful Dictator: How to Remain Popular Without Ending Repressions.
Are these Russia’s last elections? – Riddle Russia
On September 17-19, Russians are set to elect State Duma representatives, nine regional heads, deputies for 39 regional parliaments, nine regions’ central administrative councils, and countless local parliamentarians. These are proceeding alongside a new wave of repression, leading many to dismiss these as the worst elections in Russia’s modern history.
When we all become “foreign agents”
Publicist, chief editor of the ‘New ethics’ project Ivan Davydov explains the Kremlin’s addiction to targeting “foreign agents” The Russian Ministry of Justice on August 19 designated Dozhd, the country’s last remaining independent TV channel, as a “media organization performing the functions of a foreign agent”.
The tragedy of politics as normal: the meaning of the protests in Khabarovsk
In Russia’s Far East, a false state clashes with a doomed civil society, writes Ivan Davydov For more than a week, the Russian President couldn’t work out his feelings — did he trust Sergey Furgal, the arrested governor of Khabarovsk Krai, or didn’t he? On July 9, Furgal was detained; it was only on July 20 when Putin finally decided that the man sitting in pre-trial detention, accused of organising contract killings, probably should not be employed as a regional leader.
Sometimes, even Russia’s protesters can win
Ivan Davydov considers why and how protests against political repressions sometimes work At the end of February, Russia’s state media network TASS broadcast an online series entitled “20 Questions for Vladimir Putin.” The number refers to the president’s 20 years in power.
Free Russia Forum: sanctions and boycotts
In early December, Vilnius once again hosted the fourth Free Russia Forum. This, the Russian opposition’s main annual get-together, is normally described by the pro-Kremlin media as a fugitive émigré coven, but is nothing of the sort. A good half of the participants actually reside in Russia, but there is a compelling reason for holding the Forum elsewhere – it just wouldn’t be allowed to happen at home.
Could Russia's presidential elections wake up Kalmykia?
Valery Badmayev, the editor-in-chief of the Sovremennaya Kalmykia newspaper, is a well-known figure in this sparsely-populated republic in southern Russia. Many locals associate his name with his 17 years of opposition to Kalmykia’s former leader Kirsan Ilyumzhinov. Badmayev stresses that he wasn’t fighting Ilyumzhinov per se, but the entire political system that has taken hold in Russia. He still believes in political struggle, actively taking part in and organising protests.
Yulia Galyamina: “Party politics has exhausted itself”

RU Today, oDR begins a series of interviews with Russian independent politicians and civic figures. Dmitry Rebrov opens this series with an interview with Yulia Galyamina, an active participant in the movement against the Moscow renovation project and a recently-elected municipal deputy in Timiryazevsky district, Moscow.
Inside Tomsk’s political machine
Tomsk’s recent gubernatorial election had a little bit of everything: the incumbent governor as the frontrunner, spoiler candidates on the ballot, the ruling party’s haughty and occasionally rude attitude, a low-grade campaign with an attempt at some fake intrigue at the end, some modest self-enrichment by talentless spin doctors, a low turnout and a lot of indifference from the voters, a few irregularities at the polls… In a word, everything as it should be.
Oops! How Moscow’s municipal election turned into a headache for city hall
The Russian opposition enjoyed an unexpectedly decent showing at the municipal council elections in Moscow last week. The Yabloko political party, having broken with its own traditions by participating under the umbrella of Dmitry Gudkov’s United Democrats coalition, secured 176 seats, while a further 108 were won by independents, the majority of which have been working together with Gudkov.

Russia’s elections that weren’t
Gubernatorial elections in a number of Russian regions could easily have been quite competitive. But with a presidential campaign approaching, the Kremlin can’t even muster the courage for a fair race. RU On 10 September, Russia faces another election. In some places, the vote is for municipal councils, in others for regional ones; two regions are holding by-elections for the State Duma (some single-seat district representatives have resigned for various reasons).
For Russia’s students, the price of protest can be high
Two weeks ago, a third-year law student In Kaliningrad, at the western end of Russia, learned he was being expelled from his university. The management of the Kant Baltic Federal University denied that Oleg Alexeev’s role in organising a public protest on 12 June had anything to do with their decision. However, the sequence of events that led to Alexeev’s expulsion suggests otherwise.

"I don't falsify elections and I don't spread propaganda. But I'm still a teacher, I exist"
While some teachers in Russia are involved in falsifying election results and excusing corruption, others picket government agencies, get together to form independent trade unions and tell their pupils about how to behave when they are arrested. Since the 26 March protests, teachers and admin staff at some Russian schools and universities have started running awareness-raising sessions with their students.
After the bomb: crisis management, Petersburg style
Dozens of casualties, an unprecedented collapse of the city’s public transport system and arrests of people of “non-Slavic appearance” — these are the obvious consequences of the Petersburg metro attack on 3 April. But the solidarity and readiness to help which Petersburgers demonstrated during and after the attack reminded many of them that our lives and fates are in our own hands.

In St Petersburg, long-distance truck drivers are holding out for victory
On 27 March, Russia’s Association of Hauliers started a non-stop strike. From Russia’s Far East to the northwest, thousands of long-distance drivers have parked their trucks and vans along federal highways and local roads in protest. The main trigger for this protest, the second action of this scale in two years, is the Platon system, which collects an additional tax to compensate for damage done by heavy goods vehicles to Russia’s roads.

Russia’s latest protests are no child’s play
Russia's anti-corruption demonstrations on 26 March, which took place in over 80 towns across the country, have already been described as a “teenage protest”. This was the polite option, by the way: some referred to it as the “zit revolution”. Russian officialdom is still maintaining its stunned silence, pretending as if nothing happened last Sunday — or at least, nothing more than the Break in Spring festival, an initiative of the Moscow Mayor’s Office.
