Frontiers in International Relations3-030-58254-X An Overview of Russia’s Geopolitics -- History of Russia: Past and Present -- Russia’s Sources of Power -- U.S. – Russian Relations: Past, Present, and Future -- The United States – Russian Rivalry -- Outlook for the Russian Federation -- Russia’s Road to the Future.This book provides an understanding of Russia’s geopolitical strategic interests as well as a larger picture of its political realities. It shares insights on how to understand and solve the problems affecting US-Russian relations and the world. The book addresses three primary questions relevant to the current global context: Will current geopolitical shifts greatly benefit Russia’s long-term global objectives? What foreign policy will Russia pursue in the Middle East and the Baltic regions to guarantee the security of its strategic interests? And will major powers confront one another over resources that could trigger military conflict, or will they choose appeasement to maintain peace and stability in this new era? Thus, the book offers insights into the future geopolitical landscape. It therefore is a must-read for scholars, researchers of international relations and political science, as well as professionals, practitioners and analysts, interested in a better understanding of the changing global order and Russia’s geopolitical strategic interests. “For anyone wishing to understand Russia's long-term strategy and trajectory, the book you hold in your hand is an essential guide. Dr. Oualaalou’s book constitutes a bedrock of penetrating exposition and analysis on the current state of global affairs and gets to a fundamental reality: Where Russia is headed as US leadership falters.” Lyndon L. Olson, Jr., Former U.S. Ambassador to Sweden “This book is a comprehensive, thought provoking understanding of how and why a once collapsed USSR returned as the Russian Federation and today is a major challenger for global and regional dominance, especially over the USA and Western Europe.” William A. Mitchell, Col, USAF, Ret. and Professor Emeritus, Baylor University “Dr. Oualaalou provides a compelling look at a frequently underestimated player on the world stage, from the unique perspective of an insider who is both a scholar and has served as the ‘boots on the ground’ in many conflict zones.” David Schleicher, Attorney to Businesses and U.S. Government Employees.Frontiers in international relations.GeopoliticsRussia (Federation)Security, InternationalRussia (Federation)Foreign relations21st centuryGeopoliticsSecurity, International.320.947Oualaalou David S.1074164MiAaPQMiAaPQUtOrBLWBOOK9910483548103321The dynamics of Russia's geopolitics2571674UNINA
