Since Russia has re-emerged as a global power, its foreign policies
have come under close scrutiny. 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.
