Perhaps the most important viewer of those cultural efforts was Putin himself. According to the account of Putin biographer, a 1968 miniseries adaptation of a book about Soviet spies who infiltrated Nazi Germany during World War II. In 1975, fresh out of law school, Putin followed in the footsteps of the film’s heroes and joined the KGB, first working in St. Petersburg , then transferring to Dresden—just as the Soviet Union was collapsing.
, Putin's 21st-century rise to power can be understood as his attempt to regain the dominance he watched his country lose in 1989.understands that worldview well: Putin's ethos is the same one that drives Elizabeth Jennings . Unlike her husband Philip , whose loyalty to the Soviet Union sours and complicates over the show’s five seasons, Elizabeth remains a staunch statist like Putin.
Philip is dragged back into spying by a minority faction of KGB operatives who want him to monitor his wife, whom they think has been given a job by a rogue group of KGB officials intended to undermine peace efforts. They’re right, and when Elizabeth learns that the group is actively trying to subvert peace and build a machine that could automate nuclear war--a machine that actually existed!--she is forced to rethink what her loyalty means.
Modern Russian experts have asked the same question of Putin. Does he want to recreate the former Soviet Union, or embrace a new future for Russia? Does he want Russia to be rich or powerful or free or communist? According to Myers, he wants strength above all. He wants to make order out of chaos. And at the end of, that’s exactly what the Jennings do: make peace with each other and act decisively to protect the greater interests of the Soviet people.
