At risk. Interview 2014-2020. Polyakov Yu.

Having survived the self-mogle of the 1990s, our country entered the era of information wars continuing to this day.

prose writer, publicist, playwright and public figure Yuri Polyakov is one of the few who honestly writes and speaks about our time. It is no coincidence that the third collection, including his interview from 2014 to 2020, is called “at risk”. It was in the risk zone that Russian society and the Institute of Statehood itself were now. The author is sure: if the authorities are not concerned about the elimination of a monstrous social distortion, then the crisis is inevitable. Hitting injustice, when some are “cabbage soup, and others have small pearls”. leads to the explosion and repetition of the tragedy of the 1990s.

A lot of acute problems are raised in an interview: “Russian question”. The alienation of the “migratory elite” from the people, Ukrainian fascism, the “fifth column” in power, the dehumanization of the theater, literature, cinema, the reference of the media... A special place is the fundamental point of view of the amendments to the Constitution and “Transit of power”. /p>

Of course, the journalism of Yuri Polyakova causes a lot of disputes, but in his books he is always sincere. His views, assessments, forecasts are clarified, developed, sometimes reviewed, but never depend on the conjuncture of the “liberal gendarmerie” and the Kremlin drafts. Defending patriotism and social justice, Poles always indicate that he disturbs himself, and, as it turns out, deeply worries our whole society.
