As US-Russian relations scrape the depths of cold-war antagonism,
the promise of partnership that beguiled American administrations
during the first post-Soviet decades increasingly appears to be
have been false from the start. Why did American leaders
persist in pursuing it? Was there another path that would
have produced more constructive relations or better prepared
Washington to face the challenge Russia poses today? Â
With a practitioner's eye honed during decades of work on Russian
affairs, Thomas Graham deftly traces the evolution of opposing
ideas of national purpose that created an inherent tension in
relations. Getting Russia Right identifies the blind
spots that prevented Washington from seeing Russia as it really is
and crafting a policy to advance American interests without
provoking an aggressive Russian response. Distilling the Putin
factor to reveal the contours of the Russia challenge facing the
United States whenever he departs the scene, Graham lays out a
compelling way to deal with it so that the United States can
continue to advance its interests in a rapidly changing world.
