Chapter 1 in Russia’s Encounter with Globalization, 2011, pp 1-14 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In international relations, Russian leaders and the foreign policy establishment remain focused on defending the sanctity of the country’s borders and promoting its national interests. While preoccupation with national interest and defence of sovereignty is not unusual for any state, such concerns do not encompass the full complement of international political challenges in today’s globalized and heavily interdependent world. Problems of globalization, which cross state borders and supersede the ability of any one state to address them effectively, often necessitate long-term engagement and intergovernmental coordination and cooperation.
