Description
Thomas Graham's Getting Russia Right offers a nuanced exploration of the evolution of US-Russian relations and the blind spots that have hindered constructive dialogue. With decades of experience working on Russian affairs, Graham provides a practitioner's perspective on the opposing ideas of national purpose that have shaped relations.
The book identifies the key factors that have driven American policy towards Russia, including the persistence of Cold War-era antagonism and the failure to grasp the contours of the Putin factor. Graham presents a compelling analysis of how these factors have contributed to an inherent tension in US-Russian relations.
Getting Russia Right provides a timely assessment of the challenges facing US-Russia relations and offers practical insights into how Washington can craft a policy that advances American interests without provoking an aggressive Russian response.
