Articles

Russia—with its immense potential in resources, logistics, transportation, and economics—will benefit from a lasting peace more than others, because bypassing it is impossible—indeed, unnecessary and unnatural—under normal conditions.

Fyodor A. Lukyanov

The Paths of Russian Militarism

A comprehensive research can help bridge the long-standing divide in Russian thought between the partisans of militarism’s utmost importance and the partisans of its a priori ineffectiveness.

Andrei P. Tsygankov

Five Years without the INF Treaty: Lessons and Prospects

Further developments concerning regional missiles will depend primarily on U.S. decisions. The symbolic and military components of the new U.S. deployments will be closely intertwined.

Alexander D. Chekov

On Ukraine: To Understand Before Making Peremptory Judgments

It would be wrong to confine oneself to asserting international law where it is far from the ethnic and human realities.

Jacques de Larosiere

Military Alliances of the Great Powers

The world continues to be driven by three famous elements of Realism: “self-help, statism, and survival”.

Raza Muhammad 

A Race for the Global South or a Battle for the World Majority: Russia’s Prospects

The Global South’s vast range of opportunities is conducive to conflict-free cooperation there between state, private, and semi-private providers of development and security.

Konstantin V. Bogdanov, Boris E. Frumkin, Irina Ya. Kobrinskaya

India’s South Asia Policy Revisited: A Role for Russia

Russia should start thinking about projects that it can propose in South Asia, to bolster its own presence and strengthen its partnership with India.

Nivedita Kapoor

The GCC-SCO Relationship Dynamics

The GCC’s turn east towards the SCO is prompted by the SCO states’ increasingly pivotal role in the international system. The GCC states seek to diversify their political, economic, and security relations, and to balance between the SCO and Western states.

Kheir S. Diabat, Mohd Khier Aljarwan, Muyassar Suleiman

Middle Powers Revisited: “Good Citizens” of the World Majority

The world’s sharp division into center and periphery is shrinking. More actors will build a new international order than ever before. This means that middle powers will come to the fore.

Nikolai Yu. Silaev

Russia’s Radical Othering in the Global Academic Discourse

The time has come for the Russian academic community to initiate a broad discussion on the rationality of its attempts to stay within a ‘global’ academia that is actually under the structural control and ideological hegemony of the West.

Olga A. Baysha, Kamilla D. Chukasheva

Between Cooperation and Alarmism: Problems of Common History Interpretation in Russia and China

The most effective strategy for Russia would be memorialization of the Far East’s development and of the peaceful periods of Russian-Chinese interaction, coupled with measured diplomacy, as a harsher approach can only ignite Chinese revanchism.

Ivan Yu. Zuenko

The Game Space of “Information Disorder”

Paradoxically, online games against disinformation work as an efficient “soft” tool of information confrontation.

Mariia M. Bazlutckaia, Anna N. Sytnik

Trump or Harris: No Difference for Moscow

In fact, the U.S. president is unlikely to much affect Russia-U.S. relations, and Moscow should not care who exactly the U.S. elects as president.
