Routledge - Russia and EU in the New World Disorder Book

Understand the complex relationship between Russia and the European Union with this academic study from Routledge. This book provides an original contribution to existing literature by examining how the Russian 'Self' is constructed in relation to the European 'Other'. It offers a clear orientation for anyone studying Russian foreign policy discourse under the Putin administration. The text delivers a thorough analysis of key policy actors to explain how Russian discourse is grounded through historical, psychological, and politico-sociological lenses. Readers will gain a deep understanding of the evolution of Russia's foreign policy toward the EU, tracing the shift from a period of cooperation to one of competition and, eventually, conflict. This work is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in post-Soviet politics and the changing balance of power in the modern world.
