Bøker av J. L. Black

The book details events in Russia over the two years before Putin launched his war against Ukraine, provides reasons why he did so and suggests potential consequences of that war. Russia's presidency, its economy, media and quality of life are featured, along with foreign affairs, political dissent and problems posed by the pandemic, climate change and political dissent.

J. L. Black's latest work is a rich and carefully crafted attempt to expose the textures of Russia's perceptions of itself and its place in the world. Based almost entirely on Russian sources, Vladimir Putin and the New World Order argues that to understand Russian foreign policymaking, international situations must be viewed through the prism of Russian analysts and officials.
