Courrier international publie mon entretien dans son hors-série (avril-mai 2026), “Économie de guerre : la Russie multiplie les grands travaux et bichonne ses oligopoles”.
La publication vient étayer l’observation mise en avant dans mes analyses de ces dernières années : la nationalisation militaire et l’état d’urgence non déclaré n’annulent ni suspendent le cours du capitalisme russe.
