Russia has been deveropped by mainly energy sector and Manufacturing in world economy recession.
On December, the Russian protest and demonstration have expanded more than our thinking.
it will have several causes.
For example, public service, education and income gap. especially, urban and rural.
But recently, the actvites involve middle class of urban. This may be just (political)Voice of Russia.

Some quote
I don't think Russia's traditional media(TV,radio and newspaper...) only use tool of propaganda by govermant from 1990. and altenative new media is only just tool of information.
But. this realties mean that it is not small. because This activites are interactions by new medias(SNS) and its not Russian but global citizens.
Russia's goverment emphasis 'natioal image' for other countries. perhaps not do violent military action for citizens. Rather it convinient to emphasis 'democracy' for one.
In contrast, Japan has been very rich country. (Of course. facing many political and social problems.)
Mnay citizines have ipad, iphone and PC and used SNS than other country.
Also, my friend say ' japan is wonder and mysterious country' I think so.
Surelly, there was movement anti-nuclear enegy policy and TPP. but not expand and not serious dialogue than I and you thinking.
It means japanese opinon and action dosent seem to exsit.
Where dose voice of japanese citizens? I cant answer accuracy....
However, I want to tell you Voice of Japan possible by new interactin medias.

But yesterday the protestors showed themselves to be a political force. “We exist! We exist!” they chanted. They were educated and affluent—many of them carried iPads—and were keen to make their voice heard. The protest had been organised on social networks, but yesterday this Facebook crowd turned its virtual agitation into political reality.
