Bright Way: from Alliluyeva to Yarova

What is common between the divorce of Vladimir and Lyudmila Putin and rumors about the nomination as a candidate in the mayors of Moscow from the “Civil Platform” Irina Prokhorova instead of her brother Mikhail Prokhorov? In both cases, a woman plays a role in politics. But ... subordinate.

For all humanity, public humanity, the act of the president, not characteristic of the Russian political culture of recent years, the divorce has not only a household, but also a political component. In Putin’s private life, changes can occur, which will affect the political landscape. But the divorce is also a protocol event, from now on allowing the president to officially stay on official raautes in splendid loneliness.

Irina Prokhorova, who, at least judging by her debate with Nikita Mikhalkov, can play an absolutely independent role in politics - with intelligence and charisma very non -standard for the Russian political picture - is non -self -state in the sense that he acts as an arrender for his brother, clearing him a “clearing”.

In a word, women in Russian politics work for men. Without even claiming to the leading role of Margarita Pavlovna, Sobotova from the Pokrovsky Gate ("trunks, I appreciated.")

The symbols of the Soviet woman are the sculptures of the Moscow metro station "Square of the Revolution". A woman with an oar in the park. “Worker and collective farmer”: a woman propping a man in a tank-alcohol, not too coordinatedly waving her arms. Almost invisible first ladies.

The story makes another small turn. And now Valentina Matvienko is moved from the chair of the governor of St. Petersburg to replace it with a man. We will be frank: less effective and more clumsy as the mayor, despite the "vessels". And it is impossible to get rid of the impression that Valentina Ivanovna simply shut up an important, but a hole in the system of state power.

True, another gap of the template appeared - Elvira Nabiullina.

And finally, women of a new type enter the arena - without fear, but with reproach. Ready not so much to fulfill as to overfulfill the order of the Supreme Commander -in -Chief.

Model samples are Irina Yarovaya and Olga Batalina. There is also a feathered information special forces. Type - Margarita Simonyan and Tina Kandelaki. Such a "non -iverpul" four in Russian politics can steal the mountains and make things ...

And the gender balance remains sharply in favor of men. In the best case, another politician will say after the poet: “For which only women pamper us / and lips, falling, give ...”
