In Russia and the West from Alexander to Putin, Andrei P. Tsygankov identifies honor as the key concept by which Russia's international relations are determined. He argues that Russia's interests in acquiring power, security and welfare are filtered through this cultural belief and that different conceptions of honor provide an organizing framework that produces policies of cooperation, defensiveness and assertiveness in relation to the West. Using ten case studies spanning a period from the early nineteenth century to the present day - including the Holy Alliance, the Triple Entente and the Russia-Georgia war - Tsygankov's theory suggests that when it perceives its sense of honor to be recognized, Russia cooperates with the Western nations; without such a recognition it pursues independent policies either defensively or assertively. 606 $aHonor$xPolitical aspects$zRussia$xHistory 606 $aHonor$xPolitical aspects$zRussia (Federation)$xHistory 607 $aRussia$xForeign relations$zWestern countries 607 $aRussia (Federation)$xForeign relations$zWestern countries 615 0$aHonor$xPolitical aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aHonor$xPolitical aspects$xHistory. 676 $a327.470182/1 686 $aPOL011000$2bisacsh 700 $aTsygankov$b Andrei P.$f1964-$0700515 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824580003321 996 $aRussia and the West from Alexander to Putin$91472002 997 $aUNINA
