Description:

"Shiraev and Zubok analyze anti-Americanism in Russia, now high again after several years of "honeymoon" with the United States. An evaluation of this phenomenon is significant for current debates on "who lost Russia" in the United States, as well as for assessments of the past and future steps towards NATO enlargement and European integration. This analysis is also crucial for comparative studies on democratic transition of the post-communist societies. Shiraev and Zubok argue that the current anti-Americanism in Russia is largely a new phenomenon of democratic polity, the conclusion that challenges the popular notion that the spread of democracy makes international animosities and conflicts less likely."--BOOK JACKET.
