Mr. Putin

Operative in the Kremlin
Book • 2012
This book provides a detailed analysis of Vladimir Putin's rise to power and his leadership style.

Hill and Gaddy trace Putin's formative experiences, including his early life in Soviet Leningrad, his KGB training, and his roles in St. Petersburg and Moscow.

The authors break down Putin's six identities—Statist, History Man, Survivalist, Outsider, Free Marketeer, and Case Officer—to explain his actions and policies.

The book also addresses common misconceptions about Putin and offers insights into his objectives and how he views the outside world, particularly in relation to Western countries and global security.
