Abstract: This article is a result of author’s reflection on
political metaphor and its power to cause political
phenomena. On the concrete example of the democratization process in Russia, the author shows the
process of transition from the metaphors of the Soviet
authoritarianism to those of the electoral Russian
politics. It is argued that the change in the political
phenomena is caused by the change in metaphors
(and no other cause has been found so far) through
their capacity to cue recognition of social identity.
Political leaders by using different kinds of metaphors can establish a certain pattern of social identification typical of democratic or undemocratic rule
and thus transform the behavior of the population
and determine the social and political reality in terms
of this or that regime
