Understanding Russian Strategic Behavior: Imperial Strategic Culture and Putin’s Operational Code de Graeme P. Herd

Understanding Russian Strategic Behavior: Imperial Strategic Culture and Putin’s Operational Code: Contemporary Security Studies

Autor Graeme P. Herd
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 ian 2022

În volumul Understanding Russian Strategic Behavior, Graeme P. Herd propune o metodologie riguroasă pentru decodarea acțiunilor Moscovei, organizând materialul în jurul unei triade conceptuale: cultura strategică imperială, codul operațional al liderului și natura hibridă a statului rus. Structura cărții urmărește o progresie logică, pornind de la fundamentarea teoretică a culturii strategice, traversând „logica internă” a istoriei țariste și moștenirile sovietice (Stalin, Brejnev), pentru a ajunge la analiza aplicată a „Putinismului”. Recomandăm această lucrare pentru modul în care reușește să demonstreze că deciziile actuale nu sunt doar o sumă a trecutului, ci rezultatul unui proces în care supraviețuirea regimului personalist este confundată cu securitatea națională.

Din perspectiva conținutului, volumul acoperă aceeași arie tematică precum Reinterpreting Russia's Strategic Culture de Nicolò Fasola, dar cu o abordare mai axată pe psihologia politică și codul de conduită al elitei de decizie (operational code). Față de lucrările anterioare ale autorului, precum Great Powers and Strategic Stability in the 21st Century, unde accentul cădea pe managementul amenințărilor globale de către marile puteri, acest titlu sondează mult mai adânc specificul identitar și contradicțiile interne ale Rusiei. Analiza atinge punctul culminant în capitolele finale, unde sunt evaluate scenariile de tranziție a puterii și retorica influenței globale rusești, oferind cititorului instrumentele necesare pentru a distinge între realitatea geopolitică și proiecțiile de imagine ale Kremlinului. Credem că rigoarea cu care sunt tratate tabelele și datele despre stabilitatea regimului transformă acest volum într-o resursă esențială pentru înțelegerea ordinii mondiale contemporane.

De ce să citești această carte

Această carte este indispensabilă pentru studenții și profesioniștii din domeniul relațiilor internaționale care doresc să înțeleagă mecanismele psihologice și istorice din spatele politicii externe a Rusiei. Cititorul câștigă o perspectivă clară asupra modului în care mentalitatea de contraspionaj a lui Putin modelează securitatea globală, oferind argumente solide pentru a anticipa viitoarele mișcări strategice ale Moscovei într-un context de stat hibrid.

Contribuțiile sale se concentrează pe intersecția dintre guvernanță, stabilitate strategică și comportamentul elitelor politice în spațiul post-sovietic. Prin această nouă lucrare publicată la Routledge, Herd își consolidează poziția de analist fin al mecanismelor de putere de la Kremlin, utilizând un aparat critic ce îmbină istoria cu științele politice moderne.

Recenzii

'Nothing is straightforward about Russian strategic culture, and the book examines rigorously its rich contradictions and distortions. Dr. Herd’s conceptualizations are challengingly innovative, generalizations are convincing, and the attention to detail is impeccable - a rewarding read indeed.'--Pavel Baev, Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), Norway
'Is Putin's Russia something new and distinctive, or the inevitable product of Russia's history? As this densely-argued and conceptually-rich book argues, to understand tomorrow's decisions, we need to place them not just within the context of the operational code of today's leaders, but a strategic culture that has been forming for centuries.'--Mark Galeotti, University College London, UK
‘This fascinating book offers a timely and comprehensive scholarly investigation of the historical and cultural roots of contemporary Russian foreign policy. Prof. Herd provides the most detailed and informed analysis to date of the many strands and themes in Russian strategic culture, and demonstrates how these long-standing beliefs and norms continue to shape Russian foreign policy today.'--David Lewis, University of Exeter, UK
'Understanding Russian Strategic Behavior: Imperial Strategic Culture and Putin’s Operational Code is a masterstroke from Herd – it manages to ‘solve’ Churchill’s ‘Russia riddle’. Blending various aspects of Putin’s Russia into a wide ranging and clever text, Herd meticulously plots the drivers of Russian strategy and behavior under Vladimir Putin. Herd diligently incorporates contemporary strategic affairs into the text and in analyzing Kremlin responses, the book imparts on the reader a clear understanding of how and why Putin’s Russia operates. Engaging and accessible, the book will be of interest to Russianists (new and old hand) across all stages of academia, various government agencies and even the private sector. Herd’s book will no doubt assist those seeking to navigate the complex world of Russian strategic behavior. This book is a crucial guide understanding a key stakeholder in the international security environment and indeed, a significant shaper of strategic competition yet to come.'--Elizabeth Buchanan, Australian War College, Canberra and Fellow of Modern War Institute, West Point, USA 
'An excellent examination of the reasons why North American, the EU and Britain are stuck in a strategic confrontation with Russia. Russian strategic culture, as Herd convincingly shows, has seen many changes from the Czarist times to the present. Under Putin, however, the ruling elite had defined Russia’s strategic interests and values as incompatible with those of the West. This has created "a new normal" that has made it difficult to find a way out of what essentially is a dead end.'− Hannes Adomeit, Senior Fellow, Institute for Security Studies at Kiel University (ISPK), Gemany

Descriere

This book examines the extent to which Russia's strategic behavior is the product of its imperial strategic culture and Putin's own operational code.
The work argues that, by conflating personalistic regime survival with national security, Putin ensures that contemporary Russian national interest, as expressed through strategic behavior, is the synthesis of a peculiar troika: a long-standing imperial strategic culture, rooted in a partially imagined past; the operational code of a counter-intelligence president and decision-making elite; and the realities of Russia as a hybrid state. The book first examines the role of structure and agency in shaping contemporary Russian strategic behavior. It then provides a conceptual understanding of strategic culture, and applies this to Tsarist and Soviet historical developments. The book's analysis of the operational code, however, demonstrates that Putinism is more than the sum of the past. Finally, the book assesses Putin's statecraft and stress-tests our assumptions about the exercise of contemporary power in Russia and the structure of Putin's agency.
This book will be of interest to students of Russian politics and foreign policy, strategic studies and International Relations.
