{"product_id":"9780190055097","title":"Russia, the Former Soviet Republics, and Europe since 1989 : Transformation and Tragedy","description":"\u003cp\u003eNearly three decades after the fall of the Berlin Wall, early hopes for the integration of the post-Soviet states into a \"Europe whole and free\" seem to have been decisively dashed. Europe itself is in the midst of a multifaceted crisis that threatens the considerable gains of the post-war liberal European experiment. In Russia, the Former Soviet Republics, and Europe Since 1989, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48222285201643,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":104.37,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780190055097-1.jpg?v=1781608256","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9780190055097","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
