After the Exodus

What happened to Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union - and why did it arrive at its present moment? In After the Exodus, Efim Sorkin blends commentary, political analysis, and sociology to trace the country's dramatic journey: from the hopes of integration with the West to the decisive rupture of 2022.
Sorkin examines the transformation of elites, the crisis of public consciousness, and the ideological conflicts that have shaped Russia's path. His analysis is rigorous yet deeply personal, written not only as a researcher but as someone reflecting on the fate of his homeland.
After the Exodus is for readers who want to understand how Russia reached this historic turning point - and what future scenarios may lie ahead. It is both an intellectual inquiry and a passionate meditation on a country caught in the turbulence of history.
