I was so thrilled when Peter Lavelle who presents Crosstalk on RT answered my question on nationalism (12th minute)! I also asked if Russia was a libral democracy (24th minute). The answer is that the Russians regard democracy as a procedure and a means to an end, not a civic religion like in the West.
THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
