摘要：In November 2012 a new law on NGOs comes into force, which requires NGOs in Russia with foreign funding and that are engaged in “political activities” to register as “foreign agents”. This article traces the development of Russian legislation on NGOs over the last two decades, and assesses the likely impact of this new law. It is argued that at present most NGOs are still trying to clarify the exact meaning of the vague concepts within the new law, but it seems clear that it is aimed at those NGOs deemed to be a political threat to the Putin regime.
