Democratic renewal, pussy riot and flash gigs in the kremlin

Judith Bessant

pp. 153-176

Pussy Riot is an anonymous Russian female punk collective made up of young women who have achieved global fame for their high-profile protests directed at the Putin regime. Founded in August 2011, they hit the world stage in February 2012 when five of their members used the Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Moscow as the site for one of their anti Putin "flash gig" performances.
