Ebook: Between Europe and Asia : The Origins, Theories, and Legacies of Russian Eurasianism

Goes a long way toward meeting the need for a multicisciplinary and multiethnic understanding of this important and fascinating current in modern Russian history. [These essays] advance our understanding of Eurasianism s origins, the contexts within which it took shape as a movement among emigre and exile circles in interwar Europe, and its legacies across time and space--from interwar Japan to late Soviet and contemporary Russia. This volume should help readers formulate their own answers to key questions on Russia s historical identity and the future trajectory of the post-Soviet space and the peoples that inhabit that space.
