Beyond the Pyrenees
La guerre civile à peine déclarée en Espagne, l’auteur se fait porter volontaire aux côtés des Républicains. Il se retrouve sur le front de l’Aragon comme servant de fusil-mitrailleur et passe deux mois sur une hauteur à proximité de Huesca, où il est témoin de la mort de nombreux compagnons d’armes. Un certain jour, il voit apparaître sur ses positions Vladimir Konstantinovitch Glinoyedski, ancien colonel d’artillerie de l’armée tsariste, lequel, en sa qualité de conseiller d’artillerie à l’état-major du front de l’Aragon, transfère l’auteur et son camarade Balkovenko dans une batterie de la 27e Division. Par la suite, Glinoyedski insiste pour que l’auteu...
In Our Latin Quarter
After graduating from the Toulouse Agricultural Institute in 1934, Moscow native Alexei Nikolayevich Kochetkov undertook one year of compulsory military service in the Latvian Army. When he had fulfilled his obligation, he returned to France. Eager to continue his studies, Kochetkov enrolled in the National Agricultural Institute in Paris, focusing on plant pathology. It was his dream to return to Russia one day and use his education to benefit his motherland. While dedicated to his studies and his work in the laboratory of celebrated biochemist Gabriel Bertrand, Kochetkov immersed himself in the politics and interests of the Russian émigré community. An ardent political activist, he disse...
Not by Bread Alone
Since its independence in 1991, Russia has struggled with the growing pains of defining its role in international politics. After Vladimir Putin ascended to power in 2000, the country undertook grandiose foreign policy projects in an attempt to delineate its place among the world’s superpowers. With this in mind, Robert Nalbandov examines the milestones of Russia’s international relations since the turn of the twenty-first century. He focuses on the specific goals, engagement practices, and tools used by Putin’s administration to promote Russia’s vital national and strategic interests in specific geographic locations. His findings illuminate Putin’s foreign policy objective of reinstituting Russian global strategic dominance. Nalbandov argues that identity-based politics have dominated Putin’s tenure and that Russia’s east/west split is reflected in Asian-European politics. Nalbandov’s analysis shows that unchecked domestic power, an almost exclusive application of hard power, and determined ambition for unabridged global influence and a defined place as a world superpower are the keys to Putin’s Russia.
The Russian Orthodox Church and Modernity
The Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) faced various iterations of modernization throughout its history. This conflicted encounter continues in the ROC’s current resistance against—what it perceives as—Western modernity including liberal and secular values. This study examines the historical development of the ROC’s arguments against—and sometimes preferences for—modernization and analyzes which positions ended up influencing the official doctrine. The book’s systematic analysis of dogmatic treatises shows the ROC’s considerable ability of constructive engagement with various aspects of the modern world. Balancing between theological traditions of unity and plurality, the ROC’s today context of operating within an authoritarian state appears to tip the scale in favor of unity.

Vocabularies of International Relations After the Crisis in Ukraine
This book analyses the conflict in Ukraine and Russia's annexation of Crimea, covering conceptualisations from rationalist to reflectivist, and from quantitative to qualitative. Most contributors agree that many of the old concepts, such as multi-polarity, spheres of influence, sovereignty, or even containment, are still cognitively valid, yet believe the eruption of the crisis means that they are now used in different contexts and thus infused with different meanings.
Russia Abroad
While we know a great deal about the benefits of regional integration, there is a knowledge gap when it comes to areas with weak, dysfunctional, or nonexistent regional fabric in political and economic life. Further, deliberate “un-regioning,” applied by actors external as well as internal to a region, has also gone unnoticed despite its increasingly sophisticated modern application by Russia in its peripheries. This volume helps us understand what Anna Ohanyan calls “fractured regions” and their consequences for contemporary global security. Ohanyan introduces a theory of regional fracture to explain how and why regions come apart, consolidate dysfunctional ties within the region, a...
