Lots of in depth info on Russian political parties, ideologues backing up "Red-Brown" cooperation. Which hasn't disappeared. And, note, as if it wasn't obvious, that the author is a leftist, not a neo-con like Laqueur or liberal like Alexander Yanov. http://www.bu.edu/iscip/pubseries/12intro.html
http://www.alphalink.com.au/~radnat/austindependence/redbrown.html Rightist lecturer.>...The Russian Communist Workers’ Party. Now this group of a few thousands, recently worked with David Duke, America’s first white rights’ activist in Moscow to launch his new book. Communists? Well with about 2% of the vote this party this group condemns the "nasty monetary international" of the Zionists and their partners. They want the Russian identity preserved. No leftist from the West will work with them. Our own Green-Left Weekly said in 1999 that they were patriots not marxists.
