Therefore, the child grew independent and was engaged in the upbringing of the younger sister. Children were fond of music, this love was instilled in them by their grandmother and grandfather, who sang in the choir and played musical instruments. Vadim even performed as part of a youth group, and his sister subsequently chose the profession of a musician. Studying was easy for the boy, he read a lot and was drawn to knowledge. Of the school subjects, he especially liked the story, he repeatedly became the winner of school olympiads.
Political scientist
After graduation, the young man continued his education at the University of Kharkov with a degree in political economy. He completed postgraduate studies and the next decade the graduate taught students of political economy and political science. All this time, the specialist did not forget about scientific work. In 1996, Vadim was offered a position at the National Institute for Strategic Studies, whose department was in Kharkov. Karasev became the right hand of the branch manager.
Political Technologist
Further biography of Vadim Yurievich was successful, in 2003 he moved to Kiev. An experienced political scientist headed the capital's Institute of Global Strategies. The organization specialized in the analysis of foreign and electoral policies.
Karasev achieved success in political consulting; he successfully used the accumulated theoretical knowledge in practice. He participated in the work of the election headquarters of Leonid Kuchma, became an adviser to many top officials of the state. An expert in political technology, he became one of the best in the country. And although Karasev made a brilliant career as a political strategist, not all colleagues speak flatteringly about his work. Some consider it unfair and recall the failures that befell him during the period of cooperation with President Yushchenko.
Politician
The political scientist made several attempts to get into power. In 2006, he participated in the parliamentary elections from the Veche party, standing on the list under No. 2. The position of Veche was as follows: non-aligned status of Ukraine, national economic egoism and the idea of “Ukraine is me!”, Which was supposed to unite a culturally different country. The result was disappointing, the party did not get the required number of votes.
In 2010, Karasev joined the United Center party and took the position of one of the leaders. The party set itself the task of modernizing the economy and bringing the standard of living of Ukrainians to European standards. Two years later, Vadim again ran for the Verkhovna Rada and was defeated again.
