4 Obviously, the following critique does not apply to Russia's considerable community of serious political scientists who mostly have a balanced approach to recent Ukrainian history and critical view of current Russian affairs. See, for instance, Vladimir Ya. Gel'man, � ���"Iz ognia da v polymia? Dinamika postsovetskikh rezhimov v sravnitel'noi perspektive,� �� � Politicheskie issledovaniia, no. 2 (2007): 81-108; Igor' Kliamkin and Tat'iana Kutkovets, � ���"Kremlevskaia shkola politologii: Dekonstruktsiia kremlevskogo diskursa,� �� � Kontinent, no. 131 (2007): 145-175.
5 I � ��" like other Western commentators of recent post-Soviet affairs probably too � ��" have been repeatedly identified as an oranzhevyi by Russian � ���"patriotic� �� � or Ukrainian pro-Russian commentators. E.g. Ivan Burtsev, � ���"Politicheskii antifashistkii ekstaz?� �� � Obratnaia storona, 23 July 2007, http://stolin1969.narod.ru/230707.html. While I would not call myself this way, I am prepared to bear this badge. However, one of my few publications on Ukrainian high politics was not exactly an advertisement for Viktor Yushchenko's � ���"Orange� �� � team, but rather portrayed the political managers of Nasha UkrainaThe Moscow Times, 10 April 2007, p. 10, http://sptimesrussia.com/index.php?action_id=2&story_id=21310. The article became the subject of an attack by the notorious webcampaigner La Russophobe who reported that, in it, I had � ���"spewed forth a disgusting torrent of anti-Yuschenko propaganda� �� � � ��" a characterization that would seem to tarnisch my reputation as an oranzhevyi. See N.N., � ���"Annals of Russophile Gibberish,� �� � La Russophobe, 11 April 2007, click here in 2005-2007 as a bunch of loosers. See Andreas Umland, � ���"Yushchenko's Big Gamble,� �� �

7 See, for instance, the monograph by a Doctor of Science in Chemistry who has, like a whole number of similar publicists, made himself a name, in Russia in recent years, by publishing pamphlets devoted to uncovering the West's � ���"true� �� � intentions on the territory of the former USSR: Sergei Kara-Murza, Revoliutsii na eksport (Moskva: Algoritm 2005). Or, see the collected volume edited by a Russian politician who had, for a period of time, been declared persona non grataNa fone � ���"oranzhevoi revoliutsii.� �� � Ukraina mezhdu Vostokom i Zapadom: vchera, segodnia, zavtra (Moskva: Institut stran SNG 2005).
