Is the conflict inevitable? Not at all. How reasonable are western expectations of a Russia-China confrontation?
Russia in Global Affairs. 2019. Vol. 17. No. 3. P. 32–36.
Russian-Chinese relations in the last 20 years are a story of slow but steady progress. Both Moscow and Beijing have made multiple attempts to radically accelerate this progress, generally ending in failure. That being said, neither the breakdown of individual projects, nor the short-term rapprochement between Russia and the United States after September 11, nor the economic crises of 2009 and 2014 could stop the development of bilateral relations.

Политические языки ряда русских националистов имели специфичное словоупотребление «имперских» идиом в Перестройку и 1990-е гг. Воображение «империи» было связано со спецификой их взглядов на «национальное» в контексте рассмотрения актуальных политических проблем. Также, использование ими «имперских» идиом зависело от полемики с другими националистами и либерал-демократами. Данная статья посвящена анализу и сравнению использования «имперских» и связанных с ...
