“Asian Turn” in Russian Foreign Policy: Achievements, Issues, Prospects

21.03.2022

As a part of the Priority 2030 programme, the publishing house Aspect Press issued a monograph “Asian Turn” in Russian Foreign Policy: Achievements, Issues, Prospects edited by Dr. Anatoly Torkunov, Dr. Dmitry Streltsov and Dr. Ekaterina Koldunova.

The first quarter of the 21st century marked major transformations in the Russian foreign policy. Changes in the global environment, increasing complexity in the international relations and internal political processes both in Russia and in Asian countries enable a new perspective on the process that is considered in the Russian official and academic discourse as the “Asian Turn”.

The monograph presents a systematic analysis of the key directions of the Russian “Asian Turn”, which makes it possible to assess the actual achievements, issues and prospects of the Russian strategy in Asia in a broader international context.

The publication targets broad audience.
