Still out in the cold? Russia's place in a globalizing world

In: Communist and post-communist studies, Band 45, Heft 3-4, S. 343-354

Abstract

This article examines some of the implications of current debates in international relations for Russian foreign policy. The focus is on Russian foreign policy analysis and not the international relations debates per se. The article begins by discussing the way Russian policy is fractured along the dimensions of security, economics and cultural identity – each corresponding to a different geopolitical vector. The second half discusses how recent developments in international security impact on Russian foreign policy debates.
