Rezensionen
"Russia's International Relations in the Twentieth Century is an important guide to understanding the past and present - and to contemplating the future - of Russian foreign policy. Comprehensive in its coverage, summing up recent scholarship on Soviet policies in Europe, Alastair Kocho-Williams documents the continuities in Russia's foreign policy throughout its tumultuous twentieth century: its alliances based on common enemies rather than common values; its simultaneous position as an Asian, European and even a global power; and its use of economic, ideological, and military tools in addition to diplomatic ones." - David C. Engerman, Brandeis University, USA

"...Alastair Kocho-Williams provides a succinct and detailed account of Russian and Soviet foreign policy, highlighting continuity and change over the period. This book is short, informative and is an indispensable resource for students...an excellent and informative resource for students of Russian and Soviet history." - Peter Whitewood, York St John University, UK
