    Russia’s Path to Federalism and Democracy under the Influence of the Council of Europe
    in Europe en formation (L') , n. 359, spring, 2011 ,  2011 ,  59-81
    This article examines the role of the Council Europe in the development of Russian federalism, both at local and regional level. In particular, it draws on the work of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities (CLRAE), the main guarantor for the European Charter of Local Self-Government (ECLSG). While providing an overview of the specifi cities of Russian asymmetrical federalism, a particular focus is given to recent challenges arising from territorial reforms initiated by President Putin in 2000. In general terms, this article draws on research relating the analysis of federalism to the study of democracy.
