摘要：Vladimir Putin’s election was scarcely a surprise. But the political context had changed, and this meant a rather different kind of exercise, with a national system of electronic surveillance and unprecedented numbers of observers. The implications of the election will take some time to emerge: further changes to the electoral system are currently being considered by the Duma, and there are prospects of more far-reaching constitutional changes that would turn Russia into a more ‘parliamentary’ system. Putin himself appears to have a more limited agenda, and one that may not be sufficient to satisfy a more disaffected society.
