Discussion with Anvar Amirov, Ekaterina Michaylovska and Grigori Belonuchkin, colleagues of the Russian dissident and historian Vladmir Pribylovsky (1956–2016) who collect biographical information on members of the Russian elite. Their most recent book is “Around Putin: A Biographical Dictionary”.

Pribylovsky was the first person to register the now legendary Ozero dacha collective. It emerged in the mid-1990s and its members are today among the richest and influential people in Russia. Pribylovsky did not manage to finish his book and it was completed on his behalf by his colleagues. Hear from them who makes the decisions in Russia today.

Debate chaired by journalist Ondřej Soukup.

Informative interpretation from Russian provided.
