Makarychev -- The embarrassing Russian connection: selective memory of the Russian heritage in contemporary Poland / Tomasz Zaryck.Bringing together leading scholars from Russia and outside experts on Russia, this book looks at the difference between the image Russia has of itself and the way it is viewed in the West. It discusses the historical, cultural and political foundations that these images are built upon, and goes on to analyse how contested these images are, and their impact on Russian identity. The book questions whether differing images explain fractiousness in Western-Russian relations in the new century, or whether distinct 'imaginary solitudes' offer a better platform from which to negotiate differences.BASEES/Routledge series on Russian and East European studies ;79.Identity politicsRussia (Federation)RussiansEthnic identityRussia (Federation)Foreign relationsRussia (Federation)Foreign public opinionRussia (Federation)Foreign relationsWestern countriesWestern countriesForeign relationsRussia (Federation)Identity politicsRussiansEthnic identity.327.47Taras Ray1946-571541MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785993903321Russia's identity in international relations3826221UNINA
