Answer:

Censorship

Step-by-step explanation:

Russia is the largest country that was part of the former USSR. After the collapse of the socialist system, Russia opened up to capitalism and emerged as a developing power. However, although there are direct elections, Russia can not be considered a democracy. The Russian government, led by Putin practices censorship against the media and against the opposition. The Russian population does not have access to free information and the media criticizing the government are persecuted. This is similar to the methods of social control that the USSR practiced at the time of the socialist empire.
