The Foreign Policy of Russia: Changing Systems, Enduring Interests - Hardcover
In this fully updated edition of their widely respected text, Donaldson and Nogee trace the lineage and development of Russian foreign policy, highlighting the continuities of Russia's behavior in the world as well as the major sources of change and variability. This edition includes new coverage of ongoing issues connected with NATO expansion, the status of Kosovo and Georgia, terrorism, Islamism, and access to petroleum and other natural resources. The basic framework used is a modified realism that stresses the balance of power and the importance of national interest, and identifies several factors (both internal and external) that condition Russian policy. The interpretations are original and based on a mix of primary and secondary sources.

Review:
"The authors have written a comprehensive and authoritative account of Russia's foreign relations and foreign policy mechanism.... The book is well grounded in the general international relations literature and all terms are clearly and convincingly explained.... The book is authoritatively researched... and offers a full and balanced treatment of all main problems in Russian foreign relations, bilateral, regional, and functional. In this way, the book is an ideal basic text for any undergraduate course on Russian foreign policy, providing as it does the essential context for issues that might be given more in-depth treatment through more specialized works. In addition, the book should serve well in courses on comparative foreign policy and international relations after the cold war."
