Language shapes the world. Language shapes war. In his book, Sergey Girin analyzes the official language of modern Russia, removing its ideological and performative layers one by one. This language finds expression in everyday scenes, on trains and museums, at conferences and events, in films and on the Internet, and, of course, on television. Sergei Girin's work is a political dictionary of Putin's Russia, interpreting not only concepts, but also events, names and dates. A dictionary that does not offer clear definitions, but reveals contexts and analogies through minor phenomena of everyday life. Sergey Girin is a philologist, publicist, PR and GR specialist. He worked as a translator and teacher of foreign languages, commercial director at an energy company, director of communications and advocacy in public organizations. He was published in the Russian and German press. He currently lives and works in Berlin.
