Spätestens mit dem Angriff auf die Ukraine stellt sich die Frage, wie Russland zu dem wurde, was es heute ist. Olaf Kühl, langjähriger Osteuropareferent der Regierenden Bürgermeister von Berlin, kennt das Land wie nur wenige; er hat es über Jahrzehnte intensiv bereist, auch abseits der großen Metropolen, bis nach Sibirien und in den Fernen Osten. In seinem Buch zeigt er, wie sich Russland seit dem Zerfall der Sowjetunion entwickelt hat - wie hellere, freiere Köpfe allmählich durch regimehörige Funktionäre ersetzt wurden, bevor eine mafiöse Geheimdienstelite die Macht an sich riss.

At Bent Jensen (f. 1938) lærte russisk og læste historie, var en tilfældig beslutning – Modløber er fortællingen om, hvordan det kom til at forme resten af hans liv. Og det er Bent Jensens personlige erindringer om, hvad han er rundet af, hvad der har formet ham og optaget ham – fra barndommens indremissionske miljø i Kjellerup til et nutidigt blik på det Rusland, han har fulgt tæt i årtier.

In 1890, Kate Marsden, a British nurse, travelled 14,000 miles by boat, train, sledge, and horse, to reach remote isolated patients with leprosy in Siberia. Her resulting memoir, On Sledge and Horseback to the Outcast Siberian Lepers, is more than just a travelogue. It offers a profound reflection on the plight of societal outcasts, the challenges faced by female explorers, and the need for religious zeal to survive, all of which she experienced with the approval of Queen Victoria and Empress Maria Feodorovna.

Med 16 ÅR I SIBIRIEN, der udkom første gang i 1982, gav Rachel og Israel Rachlin et gribende vidnesbyrd om, hvordan en familie overlevede og blev stærkere under en tvangsforflytnings hårde vilkår. I SKÆBNER I SIBIRIEN fortælles om andre ofre for Stalintidens vilkårlighed. Men det er også en beretning om 'Det andet Rusland', som langt ude i den sibiriske taiga foldede sig ud på sine helt egne og som oftest positive bestingelser. Billedet af deportationsårene udvides fra Rachlin-familien til omverdenen.

In his timely new audiobook, Mikhail Shishkin, argues that Russia is not a 'riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma': we just don't know enough about it. So what is the real story behind Putin's autocratic regime and its invasion of Ukraine? In My Russia: War or Peace? Shishkin traces the roots of Russia's problems, from the 'Kievan Rus' via the Grand Duchy of Moscow, empire, revolution and Cold War, to the now thirty-year-old Russian Federation. 

Hoy en día, Rusia es el país más grande y uno de los más poblados del mundo. Desde las primeras y primitivas formaciones estatales del siglo IX hasta la creación del primer verdadero zarato de Rusia en 1547, la historia de la Rusia medieval está llena de constantes luchas por el poder, rivalidades personales entre varios príncipes, guerras sangrientas y búsqueda de identidad.

In 1979, alarmed Soviet leaders watched the growing civil war in Afghanistan with trepidation. Russia’s neighbor had been a close ally for many years, acting as a buffer between Russia and British India, proving vital in the “Great Game” between the two empires. Various coups had, by this point, led to a Moscow-friendly government in Kabul, but things were not playing out as the Soviets had hoped.

The Soviet Union is gone, but its ghostly traces remain, not least in the material vestiges left behind in its turbulent wake. What was it really like to live in the USSR? What did it look, feel, smell, and sound like? In The Soviet Century, Karl Schlögel, one of the world's leading historians of the Soviet Union, presents a spellbinding epic that brings to life the everyday world of a unique lost civilization. A museum of—and travel guide to—the Soviet past, The Soviet Century explores in evocative detail both the largest and smallest aspects of life in the USSR.

Investigativní novinář Ondřej Kundra přináší šokující informace o tom, jak Putinovo Rusko zachází s lidmi, které svévolně samo označí za zrádce, nepřátele režimu, odpadlíky či je vyhodnotí jako nepohodlné oponenty režimu. Na konkrétních případech ukazuje, jak dnes hlavně ruská kontrarozvědka FSB – hlavní domácí bezpečností služba Ruské federace a hlavní nástupnická agentura KGB, která podléhá přímo Putinovi –, a vojenská rozvědka GRU podléhající náčelníkovi Generálního štábu, pracují.

Rusia ha sido durante mucho tiempo un país poderoso. Incluso hoy en día, Rusia es una de las grandes potencias del planeta. Sin embargo, la Rusia actual no es más que un vestigio del gran territorio que en su día constituyó la Rusia Imperial. El Imperio ruso se extendía por todos los continentes y, en un momento dado, la Rusia Imperial podía reclamar territorios desde Alaska hasta Polonia y casi todo lo demás.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia under Yeltsin and Putin implemented a political system of "imitation democracy," marked by "a huge disparity between formal constitutional principles and the reality of authoritarian rule." How did this system take shape, how else might it have developed, and what are the prospects for re-envisioning it more democratically in the future? These questions animate Dmitrii Furman's Imitation Democracy, a welcome antidote to books that blandly decry Putin as an omnipotent dictator without considering his platforms, constituencies, and sources of power.

Med denne bog giver Niels Bo Poulsen og Flemming Splidsboel indblik og perspektiv. Hvordan skal vi forstå Putin, hvad var vejen hen mod krigen, og hvad er det for en tid, vi kigger ind i. Bogen er ikke en situationsbeskrivelse af krigen i Ukraine, selv om krigen er bogens afsæt. Den giver gennem nedslag i en række vigtige spørgsmål læserne svar ”vejen derhen” og tiden efter. Bogens kapitler handler om Ruslands politiske tænkning, om statsmagt, forsvar, sikkerhedspolitik og relationer til omverdenen.

El siglo XVII estuvo marcado por múltiples revoluciones predemocráticas que estallaron en ambos hemisferios. En Europa y sus vecinos del este, se libraron incesantemente guerras que cambiaron las fronteras.

Partly out of dire circumstances and partly from a cultural worldview, it was the Soviet Union who first pressed female pilots into direct combat when Hitler invaded Russia. Ahead of Stalingrad, Stalin publicly declared that “women should be given the right to fly and fight for their country.” As a result, more than 800,000 women served in the Soviet military during the war years.
