Russian political scientist Alexander Khramchikhin is the main author of the books “Elections to the Sixth State Duma: Results and Conclusions” and “Elections of the President of the Russian Federation: Results and Conclusions” published by the Institute of Political and Military Analysis in 1996. In this article we will talk about the most interesting moments in the life of a Russian political scientist.
Childhood and youth
Hramchikhin Alexander Anatolyevich was born in 1967 in the suburbs. Educated at Moscow State University. He was a student of the faculty of physics. In 1990, he received a diploma of its completion. 1995-1996 - this is the period of work in the analytical structures of the Executive Committee of the NDR. Khramchikhin also worked at the headquarters for the election of the President of the Russian Federation Yeltsin B.N. In 1999, Alexander Khramchikhin was an active participant in the election campaign of the SPS Kiriyenko when the State Duma and the mayor of the capital were held.
How are Khramchikhin doing today?
Today, among the political scientists and experts, the name of Alexander Anatolyevich Khramchikhin is widely known, since he heads the work of the information and analytical department of the IPVA (Institute for Political and Military Analysis). He came to work there in January 1996. The establishment of the Institute took place before his eyes and with his direct participation. The creation of a database of information on the regional situation in all corners of the country remote from the center is directly related to his name.
Until the beginning of the 90s, Alexander Khramchikhin lived in the suburbs. Then he moved to the capital of Russia. St. Petersburg became the second hometown. The expert has repeatedly expressed the view that life in Moscow and St. Petersburg is fundamentally different from life in the regions. The differences concern not only the pace, but also its level. The difference is too substantial. In order not to be verbose, for five years, Alexander Anatolyevich visited thirty regions of the country, he called business trips trips “in the field”.
Khramchikhin Alexander Anatolyevich, whose biography will be associated with the work of the Institute for many years, becomes a co-author of the books “Elections to the Sixth State Duma: Results and Conclusions”, “Elections of the President of the Russian Federation: Results and Conclusions”, which were published in 1996.
Supporting the candidacy of B. N. Yeltsin in the elections was the first IPVA project. Later, under the leadership of Alexander Khramchikhin, the employees of the scientific analytical institution entrusted to him took a direct part in the campaign for the election of candidates for legislative and executive authorities in the Central District, the Far East, and the Siberian Federal District. Political scientist Alexander Khramchikhin with his staff developed programs and statutory documents for political parties. On their list: “Our Home is Russia” and “Democratic Choice of Russia”. The same package of documents was developed for the Union of Right Forces and the Unity Party.
His works are published in newspapers and magazines: “Banner”, “NG”, “NVO”, “LG”, “Vremya MN” and “Domestic Notes”. In them he covers the issues of military and political subjects.
Periodically, he participates in television programs on TV channels: VGTRK, REN-TV. Performs on the radio waves “Mayak” and “Estonian Radio”.
Articles by Alexander Khramchikhin with discussions about the leadership policy within the Russian Federation and about interaction with other countries on such portals as russ, globalrus, ima-press, became known not only to political scientists, but also to ordinary citizens. He raises issues of military construction and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and foreign countries. He is interested in politics both at the federal level and at the regional level.
Alexander Khramchikhin in NVO often talks about the situation in Syria, in Ukraine and writes articles for the column “Summary from the Donbass”.
The main postulates of the theory of political scientist
Khramchikhin Alexander adheres to the theory of the disarming strike of the United States of America on carriers of nuclear weapons of Russia. Alexander Anatolyevich explains the essence of the theory in the ability of the United States to provide Russia with an excuse to send NATO troops to its territory to protect the Russian Federation from China.
Alexander Khramchikhin, whose biography is closely related to military analytics, devoted many works to China. In the book “The Dragon Woke Up,” the political scientist compared the pace of modernization of the Chinese army, the ongoing exercises of the PRC troops with the country's internal problems. In his opinion, the problems are quite serious. To write a book, he studied 400 sources, including the work of specialists in the study of China. Based on the research done, Khramchikhin derives a theory: in China, a shortage of natural resources and territory will be acute. An attempt to increase the popularity of the CCP will push him to armed conflict. In this way, the population will be distracted from the country's internal problems, from wasteful use of resources.
Pessimistic views on the prospects of the Russian army, the development of the military industry, and aircraft construction were reflected in the 2011 publication “Memorial Cemetery of the Russian Aircraft Industry”.
Today, the opinion of a political scientist boils down to the fact that discussions about the prospects for the development of the army are an eternal topic, since the situation is changing within the country. At the same time, the means and methods of armed struggle are changing. Alexander Khramchikhin eased the fierce criticism of Russian policies related to the army amid the events in neighboring Ukraine. Now the political scientist calls, like most: “Give the war!”.
Critical Responses to Political Scientist Statements
In 2008, on August 7, a political scientist announced his disbelief in the impending war in South Ossetia. The military events that soon followed gave rise to criticize Khramchikhin other military experts. His opinion about the threat to Russia from China is also criticized.

Recent issues raised in political scientist articles
Often raised in Khramchikhin’s publications is the situation in the Donbass. According to the political scientist, Ukraine in the hands of the West could not become an instrument against the Russian Federation. Constantly accepting money from Western countries, Ukraine was not able to attract Russian citizens to its side. Alexander Anatolyevich expresses the opinion that the USA will soon cease to “love” such Ukraine. And in order to regain her disposition, her leadership will decide to war. Everything can happen according to the Croatian scenario of 1995, when the Serbian territory was liquidated.
Russia and Turkey
The political scientist has repeatedly spoken about the problems of interaction between Russia and Turkey: "Erdogan will strike Russia in the back at the slightest opportunity." According to the political scientist, in Syria, for Russia, "turned out" a favorable situation. As with the Stalinist slogan, a mighty blow was struck on foreign territory against a dangerous enemy. During the war, Russian diplomacy also showed itself. The enemy’s plans for unification were foreseen, and their alliances fell apart under the pressure of the work of Russian diplomats. The political scientist insists that, despite success in the Syrian war, you need to be careful with Erdogan. He may not forgive Russia for having made him play by his own rules.
Deutsche welle
Deutsche Welle, asking questions to a political scientist about the country's national security strategy, received comprehensive answers. Alexander Anatolyevich is critical of Moscow’s ignoring of real threats to the country.
The strategy was developed until 2020. The political scientist tried to analyze why this document appeared and how the country's leadership plans to ensure security.
The political scientist claims that he saw nothing new in the document. America is still the enemy. But the authors do not raise the issue of China. It is more correct to say that China is seen as an ally in three directions. This position is not clear and not acceptable by the expert.
It is especially interesting to read articles of an analytical nature. For example, the arguments of a military expert about the prospects of military technology. A nuclear weapon, according to an expert, is more likely a weapon of psychological influence. The direction associated with the development of ballistic missiles is the direction of future development. The expert claims that the opinion of the tank as an obsolete weapon is completely wrong. The development of artillery cannot be ignored. Confirmation of its use in the Donbass. Promising is the direction of the development of combat robots. Of course, the issue of analysis of aviation development is raised. The political scientist calls her the new god of modernity. Today is the time for drones.
