Europe itself is in the midst of a multifaceted crisis that threatens the considerable gains of the post-war liberal European experiment. In \u003cem\u003eRussia, the Former Soviet Republics, and Europe Since 1989\u003c\/em\u003e, Katherine Graney provides a panoramic and historically-rooted overview of the process of \"Europeanization\" in Russia and all fourteen of the former Soviet republics since 1989. Graney argues that deeply rooted ideas about Europe's cultural-civilizational primacy and concerns about both ideological and institutional alignment with Europe continue to influence both internal politics in contemporary Europe and the processes of Europeanization in the post-Soviet world. By comparing the effect of the phenomenon across Russia and the ex-republics, Graney provides a theoretically grounded and empirically rich window into how we should study politics in the former USSR.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katherine Graney\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019005509X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780190055097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2020","brand":"Katherine Graney","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992867438847,"sku":"9780190055097","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_38d0566c-f26b-4e0f-9ab8-b1e761f85c5b.jpg?v=1683321251","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/russia-the-former-soviet-republics-katherine-graney-9780190055097","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
