How did Russia manage to emerge resurgent on the world stage and
play a weak hand so effectively? Is it because Putin is a brilliant
strategist? Or has Russia stepped into a vacuum created by the
West's distraction with its own domestic problems and US
ambivalence about whether it still wants to act as a superpower?
Putin's World examines the country's turbulent past, how it has
influenced Putin, the Russians' understanding of their position on
the global stage and their future ambitions -- and their conviction
that the West has tried to deny them a seat at the table of great
powers since the USSR collapsed. This book looks at Russia's key
relationships -- its downward spiral with the United States,
Europe, and NATO; its ties to China, Japan, the Middle East; and
with its neighbors, particularly the fraught relationship with
Ukraine. Putin's World will help Americans understand how and why
the post-Cold War era has given way to a new, more dangerous world,
one in which Russia poses a challenge to the United States in every
corner of the globe -- and one in which Russia has become a toxic
and divisive subject in US politics.
