Full Description
This book examines how changes in Russian politics, society and economy have influenced post-Soviet Russian foreign policy from the mid-1990s to the present. It considers important domestic changes within Russia such as the growth of Russian nationalism, the prevalence of corruption, the rise of oligarchs and economic lobbies, and the change of leadership. The author explores the degree to which Russian foreign policy in the post-Soviet era has been shaped by ideology and pragmatism, arguing that pragmatism has been consistently more important than nationalism in foreign-policy-making.This book will be of interest to students and scholars of Russian and Soviet politics, international relations, and security studies.
