Description
Discover a pivotal examination of the intricate dynamics between Russia and America in 'Russia and America.' This compelling book, published by John Wiley & Sons, delves into the deteriorating relations that have reached an all-time low, especially following the controversial 2016 US presidential election. With an ISBN of 9781509531141, this brand-new 272-page volume, released in 2019, features insights by esteemed scholar Andrei P. Tsygankov. He challenges the conventional notion that US-Russia relations have entered a new Cold War. Instead, Tsygankov posits that Russia's strategy must be analyzed within the evolving global landscape. As America attempts to sustain its dominant position, Russia—considered the weaker power—cleverly utilizes its asymmetric capabilities and alliances with non-Western nations to uphold its interests and effectively navigate US pressures. This essential read also explores various critical areas of conflict, including European security, the implications of cyber warfare, nuclear strategies, and energy politics, painting a complex picture of two nations enveloped in suspicion and conflict. Unpacking the nuances of these international relations, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in geopolitics and the ongoing saga between Russia and America.
