The papers included here, except for the editor's introduction, all
come from the Strategic Studies Institute's annual conference on
Russia in May 2012. In one way or another, they all point to the
internal pathologies that render Russian security a precarious
affair, at the best of times. As the editor suggests, the very fact
of this precariousness makes Russia an inherently unpredictable and
even potentially dangerous actor, not necessarily because it will
actively attack its neighbors, though we certainly cannot exclude
that possibility, but rather because it may come apart trying to
play the role of a great power in Eurasia or elsewhere. As we all
know, that outcome happened in 1917 and in 1989-91, with profound
implications for international security and U.S. interests.
