Produktbeschreibung

New Perspectives on Russian-American Relations includes seventeen articles on Russian-American relations from an international roster of leading historians. Covering topics such as trade, diplomacy, art, war, public opinion, race, culture and more, the essays show how the two nations related to one another across time from their first interactions as nations in the 18th century to now. Instead of being dominated by the narrative of the Cold War, New Perspectives on Russian-American Relations models the exciting new scholarship that covers more than the political and diplomatic worlds of the later twentieth century, and provides scholars with a wide array of the newest research in the field.
