The Assassination That Signaled a New Era
When journalist Masha Gessen received a late-night call about politician Galina Starovoitova's murder in 1998, she couldn't have known this moment marked the beginning of Russia's descent into darkness. Starovoitova, an anthropologist turned democracy advocate, had been gunned down in her apartment building-a brazen killing that would become the first note in a symphony of political violence. This wasn't just another crime in a chaotic post-Soviet landscape. It was a warning shot, an early tremor before the earthquake. Within months, an obscure former KGB officer named Vladimir Putin would rise from the shadows to become Russia's most powerful leader since Stalin. His ascent would transform a country that had briefly tasted freedom back into an authoritarian state where murder, media suppression, and fear became tools of governance. Understanding Putin's rise isn't just about comprehending Russian politics-it's about witnessing how democracies die and how one man's pathology can reshape an entire nation's destiny.
