| Summary: | "This book defines Eurasianism, a political idea with a long tradition, for a new century. Historically, Eurasia was depicted as a third continent with a geographical and historical space distinctively different from both Europe and Asia. Today, the concept is mobilized by the Russian foreign policy elite to imagine a close relationship with China and indirectly inspires the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative. This book is of interest to scholars of Russian and Chinese foreign policy, to economists, and to scholars of political thought. Glenn Diesen is Professor at the University of South-Eastern Norway (USN). His research focus is Russias Greater Eurasia Initiative as a geoeconomic and conservative concept"--Publisher's description.
