CULTURAL IDEAL OR GEOPOLITICAL PROJECT? EURASIANISM’S PARADOXES

Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2009, Vol 32, Issue 3

Abstract

Both in its classical variant, based on primarily cultural coordinates, and in the neoone, predominantly geopolitical, Eurasianism proves its ideocratic character, and therefore ideological, despite its advocates’ rejection to any form of ideology in favor of geopolitical concepts. Advancing concepts as pro-Soviet neo-Eurasianism, respectively post-Soviet neo-Eurasianism, the article proposes a review of the Eurasianist phenomenon in 20th century Russia, and the way it was resorbed, after the dismemberment of the Soviet Union, in the Russian Federation’s foreign policy.
