In this episode of the BlomCast, I engage with historian Mark Galeotti to explore the complexities of Russian history, military strategy, and the interplay of crime and society. They discuss the continuities in Russian military tactics, the cultural narratives that shape Russian identity, and the role of the Orthodox Church. The conversation also delves into the impact of globalization on organized crime and the challenges Russia will face post-war, and into the remarkable connections between crime, state-building, and societal norms.
