Soviet and Russian Foreign Policy (SESS0044)

This module deals with Russian foreign policy from 1917 to the present day. The aim of the module is to offer the student a basic grounding in the aims and results of Russian foreign policy, in the context of changes within Russia and in international politics. Particular attention will be given to the role of Gorbachev’s ‘new thinking’, and to the foreign policy of the Russian Federation as it has developed under El’tsin, Putin, Medvedev and Putin again. The module also aims to develop the student’s skills in assimilating a substantial literature, to be demonstrated through essays and seminars. There are no prerequisites, but it is anticipated that students will have some background in twentieth-and twenty-first-century Russian or European government or history.
