Political scientists have accustomed politicians to the fact that something happens in August. The event shakes the country, suddenly raising the rates. From the GKChP to the poisoning of Alexei Navalny - the secret of Augustus with us. Over the years, the “August Crisis” has turned into the beginning of the political season, like the French Rentree . But is he a crisis? The system is forever in the crisis, this is its exhalation. Each August out of thirty, dumbfounding the authorities, opened up new chances and an expansion field. Activated the qualities that make the Russian Federation more turntable. The shakes of Augustus are not amenable to the analysis of risks. We willingly risk eleven months a year, and in August we are helplessly waiting for events. The event is an exact word. But it is impossible to predict him. War, death, change of power?
Having lost the sense of event, we know only the incident. The event is unpredictable, since it is intangible - an accidental place of intersection of incidents, a portal into another reality.
There is no simple answer to the event when it is needed instantly. The GKChP overturned Gorbachev and offered the extreme Yeltsin to the tank along with Zolotov and Korzhakov. In August 2000, Kursk sank and Ostankin's television tower flashed, almost incinerating the Putin majority. But Bar was able to update August 2010.
On August two, they established the Russian system. The Preobrazhenskaya Revolution in August 1991 and August 1999, when Russia thoughtlessly entered the Putin age. I remind you of this, just to evaluate the power of events that have begun so trite. The Trigger of the GKChP was a wiretap Gorbachev Kryuchkov with slurred personnel assumptions. The resignation of Prime Minister Stepashin with his replacement in Putin could not be at all if the nervous burglar on August 9, 1999 in the Yeltsin office went a little differently.
Really war? Our wars love August. On August 6, 1996, on the eve of the inauguration of President Yeltsin, the Maskhadov detachment, depicting a “capture of the Terrible” by small forces of a thousand or two, discouraged the army and Russia. General Lebed flew to Khasavyurt - the trauma became insatiable. Three more years, and on August 6, Shamil Basayev with the Mujahideen detachments invaded Dagestan, untied the second war in the Caucasus. And two Chechens, having bought tickets from the hands, on August 24, 2004 blew two aircraft in the air-this began the most hellish operation of Shamil Basayev, which ended in Beslan. After that there was a Russian-Georgian war in August 2008. And in August 2014, the introduction of Russian troops into Donbass translated the intra-Ukrainian conflict into a prelude to the European War, and to this day ready.
Every Military August forced people in Russia helpless.
