RUSS 15 Russia and the West: From Early Times to Present Day

In its thousand-year history, Russia has occupied a unique place between Europe and Asia, and both Russian and foreign observers have wrestled with defining its place vis-à-vis western (European) civilization. This course will explore Russia’s place in world history, examining the complex and evolving relationship of Russia and Europe, and the Soviet Union and the West, from the middle ages to the present. Particular emphasis will be given to the complex relationship of Putin’s Russia with the United States today.
