About this product

Product Information

An introduction to Putin's formidable intelligence and security organization Since its founding in 1995, the FSB, Russia's Federal Security Service, has regained the majority of the domestic security functions of the Soviet-era KGB. Under Vladimir Putin, who served as FSB director just before becoming president, the agency has grown to be one of the most powerful and favored organizations in Russia. The FSB not only conducts internal security but also has primacy in intelligence operations in former Soviet states. Their activities include anti-dissident operations at home and abroad, counterintelligence, counterterrorism, criminal investigations of crimes against the state, and guarding Russia's borders. In The Russian FSB , Kevin P. Riehle provides a brief history of the FSB's origins, placed within the context of Russian history, the government's power structure, and Russia's wider culture. He describes how the FSB's mindset and priorities show continuities from the tsarist regimes and the Soviet era. The book's chapters analyze origins, organizational structure, missions, leaders, international partners, and cultural representations such as the FSB in film and television. Based on both English and Russian sources, this book is a well-researched introduction to understanding the FSB and its central role in Putin's Russia.

Reviews
"Presents a very comprehensive overview of Russia's powerful intelligence service based on extensive use of both Western and Russian sources. The author persuasively links the FSB to the traditions of its Soviet and Tsarist predecessors, and the work is a unique handbook for national security professionals and students of Russian government and international affairs."?Michael Sulick, former director, CIA Clandestine Service "Riehle has written an informative and accessible book that sheds much light on one of the most important organizations in Russia. His timely analysis of the FSB's culture and powers is both a useful antidote to speculation and helps us to understand continuity and change in Russian power, helping us to peer ahead to what we might expect in the future."?Andrew Monaghan, Kennan Institute Global Fellow, author of Dealing with the Russian
