Drawing on both Russian and Western sources, Tsygankov shows how Moscows policies have shifted under different leaders visions of Russias national interests. He gives an overview of the ideas and pressures that motivated Russian foreign policy in six different periods: the Gorbachev era of the late 1980s, the liberal Westernizers era under Kozyrev in the early 1990s, the relatively hardline statist policy under Primakov, the more pragmatic course of limited cooperation under Putin and then Medvedev, and the assertive policy Putin has implemented since his return to power. Evaluating the successes and failures of Russias foreign policies, Tsygankov explains its many turns as Russias identity and interaction with the West have evolved. The book concludes with reflections on the emergence of the post-Western world and the challenges it presents to Russias enduring quest for great-power status along with its desire for a special relationship with Western nations.
