Russia¿s Role in World Politics

Angebote / Angebote:

This book explores Russia's role in world politics. In recent years, Moscow has played an increasingly active and assertive role in geopolitics. Examples include Russiäs takeover of Crimea and meddling in eastern Ukraine, Russiäs military intervention in Syria and support for the Assad government, the Kremlin¿s alleged interference in the 2016 US presidential race, the pursuit of closer economic and diplomatic ties with China, and Russiäs ambitious military reforms and nuclear brinkmanship.Not surprisingly, Russiäs role in world politics has become the object of a spirited debate among Western policymakers, think-tank analysts, and academics. Much of this debate focuses on one central question: What are the main drivers, or causes, of Moscow¿s recent assertiveness? The contributions gathered here address this question by focusing on the interplay of power, ideas, and domestic influences.
