The contributors in this interdisciplinary collection address the
problem of interconnection between the study of the "Other," either
Russian or American, and the shaping of national identities in the
two countries at different stages of US-Russian relations. The
focus of research interests were typically determined by the
political and social debates in scholars' native countries. In this
book, leading Russian and American scholars analyze the problems
arising from these intersections of academic, political, and
sociocultural contexts and the implicit biases they entail. The
book is divided into two parts, the first being a historical
overview of past configurations of the interrelationship between
fields and agendas, and the second covering the role of
institutionalized area studies in the twentieth and early
twenty-first centuries. In both parts the role of the "human
factor" in the study of mutual representations is elucidating.
