Russian Military Thought During the First Chechen War: Theory and Practice
(2025) Pylypenko, Vladyslav
In foreign and Russian historiography, the First Chechen War has been primarily studied through the prism of military affairs and innovations of both sides of the conflict. However, the main drawback was the availability of unused electronic archival resources, as well as the memoirs of the conflict participants. In terms of methodology, attention was paid to the descriptive method (actually reconstructing the clashes and their features), while the analysis of military theory was relegated to the background. The study traces the development of Russian military thought during the First Chechen War. The author analyzes the strategy as a multifaceted component (ranging from economic and political to military factors). Traced the theoretical foundations and practical implementation of Soviet/Russian doctrine during the aforementioned military conflict. A separate object of study is military tactics as a fundamental element of the implementation of the strategy of the Russian command.
