Russian annexation of Crimea and the subsequent air campaign over
Syria took the world by surprise. The capabilities and efficiency
of Putin's armed forces during both operations signalled to the
world that Russia was back in business as a significant military
actor on the international stage. In this cutting-edge study,
Bettina Renz and Hanna Smith combine their respective expertise in
strategic studies and foreign policy to offer an in-depth and
comprehensive analysis of Russia's military revival under Putin's
leadership. Whilst the West must adjust to the reality of a
modernised and increasingly powerful Russian military, they argue
that the renaissance of Russian military might and its implications
for the balance of global power can only be fully understood within
a wider historical context. Assessing developments in Russian Great
Power thinking, military capabilities, Russian strategic thought
and views on the use of force throughout the post-Soviet era, the
book shows that rather than signifying a sudden Russian military
resurgence, recent developments are consistent with longstanding
trends in Russian military strategy and foreign policy. This timely
and thoughtful book is a must-read for students of politics as well
as anyone interested in current affairs.
