Years of Russian Foreign Policy (3h)
This course studies the diplomatic history of Russia and the Soviet
Union over the past one hundred years, from the time of the Franco-Russian
Alliance to the post-Soviet period. At its heart, the course contains
the traditional study of a nation's foreign policy, here examining
Russia's foreign relations over its most turbulent time period. Diplomatic
and political histories will be used to explore other states, both
near and far. Indeed, while the course will focus on Russia's relationships
with Europe and the United States, it will also consider Russian and
Soviet activity in Asia and Africa, both as part of its relations
with the above states and in their own right. In the process of this,
however, the course has elements of cultural and intellectual history.
On the one hand, trends in the Russian Orthodox Church affected Russia's
view of itself and its role among the European nations. On the other
hand Russian intellectual and ideological struggles of these years
affected Russia's view of itself in relation to these states as well
as Russia's sense of itself. The most obvious result of these debates
is the revolution of 1917 which brought the Bolsheviks to power, but
their influence is far broader than that.
