Reviews

"""Chasing Greatness offers an insider perspective on Russia and explores how a concept everyone takes for granted such as 'great power' has a different history in that setting. Written by one of the best rising scholars of Russia, this book greatly advances our understanding of Russia and Russian foreign policy.""--Ayse Zarakol, University of Cambridge ""Russia's claimed great-power status has become a prison of their own making. Essential reading, Chasing Greatness tells how and why.""--Iver B. Neumann, author of The Steppe Tradition in International Relations"
