The connoisseur of Putin’s regime, was editor-in-chief of the independent Russian television channel Dozhd from 2010 to 2015. His work »War and Punish ment«, translated into German by Marlene Fleißig, Sigrid Schmid, Karlheinz Dürr, and Jens Hagestedt, examines which myths prepared the ground for the Russian invasion of Ukraine through more than 300 years of propaganda, historical narratives, and folk tales. Zygar reveals the origins of Russia’s imperialism — and points a way out of its destructive delusions.
Hosted by Franziska Davies.
