Abstract

In the international political academia and international political activities, the issue of Russia is a very complicated concept, which results not only from the complexity of Russian civilization, but also from the Western unique comprehension and expression of Russian issues. It is Europeancentrism, the Western Concept, Slavic Studies and Sovietology that combine to influence the Western reading about Russia and ultimately cause a different perception of the issue of Russia from Russia itself.

Key words

Russian/Soviet Studies / Sovietology / the Concept of “West”
【Kлючевые слова】российско-советские исследования
/ советология / концепция «Запада»
