Product description
In 2008 the members of the American Association for the Advancement of Slavic Studies (AAASS) voted to change the name of the Association to ASEEES, the Association for Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies. “Suddenly, ‘Eurasia’ is everywhere,” wrote Stephen Kotkin just one year earlier, critically describing the reshaping of the field of Slavic Studies in Western academia. At the dawn of the millennium, the term “Eurasia” transformed the way we think about the Slavic world, Russia, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, and the post-socialist space in general. Nevertheless, the concepts of both Eurasia
and Eurasianism lack a clear definition or even a common denominator. In Russia, as Kotkin recaps, Eurasia generally means anti-Western; in Kazakhstan and Tatarstan, Eurasia generally means Western-friendly; and in Turkey Eurasia can mean either anti-Western or Western-friendly. In Western academia, on the other hand, the term Eurasia has profitably replaced “post-Soviet” as a way to describe former Soviet republics without referring openly to the Soviet legacy. It is used to describe Russia and the other new independent states, as well as the new independent states without Russia.
