This book examines the extent to which Russia's strategic behavior is the product of its imperial strategic culture and Putin's own operational code.

'Nothing is straightforward about Russian strategic culture, and the book examines rigorously its rich contradictions and distortions. Dr. Herd's conceptualizations are challengingly innovative, generalizations are convincing, and the attention to detail is impeccable - a rewarding read indeed.'--Pavel Baev, Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), Norway
'Is Putin's Russia something new and distinctive, or the inevitable product of Russia's history? As this densely-argued and conceptually-rich book argues, to understand tomorrow's decisions, we need to place them not just within the context of the operational code of today's leaders, but a strategic culture that has been forming for centuries.'--Mark Galeotti, University College London, UK
'This fascinating book offers a timely and comprehensive scholarly investigation of the historical and cultural roots of contemporary Russian foreign policy. Prof. Herd provides the most detailed and informed analysis to date of the many strands and themes in Russian strategic culture, and demonstrates how these long-standing beliefs and norms continue to shape Russian foreign policy today.'--David Lewis, University of Exeter, UK
'Understanding Russian Strategic Behavior: Imperial Strategic Culture and Putin's Operational Code is a masterstroke from Herd - it manages to 'solve' Churchill's 'Russia riddle'. Blending various aspects of Putin's Russia into a wide ranging and clever text, Herd meticulously plots the drivers of Russian strategy and behavior under Vladimir Putin. Herd diligently incorporates contemporary strategic affairs into the text and in analyzing Kremlin responses, the book imparts on the reader a clear understanding of how and why Putin's Russia operates. Engaging and accessible, the book will be of interest to Russianists (new and old hand) across all stages of academia, various government agencies and even the private sector. Herd's book will no doubt assist those seeking to navigate the complex world of Russian strategic behavior. This book is a crucial guide understanding a key stakeholder in the international security environment and indeed, a significant shaper of strategic competition yet to come.'--Elizabeth Buchanan, Australian War College, Canberra and Fellow of Modern War Institute, West Point, USA
'An excellent examination of the reasons why North American, the EU and Britain are stuck in a strategic confrontation with Russia. Russian strategic culture, as Herd convincingly shows, has seen many changes from the Czarist times to the present. Under Putin, however, the ruling elite had defined Russia's strategic interests and values as incompatible with those of the West. This has created "a new normal" that has made it difficult to find a way out of what essentially is a dead end.'- Hannes Adomeit, Senior Fellow, Institute for Security Studies at Kiel University (ISPK), Gemany
