Rezensionen

WINNER 2023 BEST BOOK AWARD (POLISH SOCIETY FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDIES)

"This is the most systematic application of role theory to Russian foreign policy. It is both an insightful account of critical junctures in the evolution of Russian thinking, and a skilful blending of empirical rigor and theoretical innovation. It represents a go-to volume for students and scholars of Russia alike."

Luke March, University of Edinburgh

"Damian Strycharz's book is an original and astute contribution to scholarship on role theory and Russian foreign policy. Its theoretical and empirical depth advances knowledge on the crucial question of how powerful states define and think about their place in regional and global affairs."

Cristian Cantir, Oakland University
