Political technology' is the means by which the Kremlin achieved a monopoly of political control after the chaos of the 1990s. It then metastasised to take over other areas: civil society, history and foreign policy. Political technology produced the propaganda that produced the war against Ukraine. Political technology will outlive the end of real politics in an increasingly authoritarian Russia; it influences everything else that Russia does.
Political technology works. It can create total systems of control. It can give malign actors the edge in political competition. It can create fake political subjects and entire virtual political geometries. It can grow support for fringe and minority politics. And it can be used to reverse lever outsider political takeovers by creating artificial rivals to traditional political structures and then drive them mainstream.
