Popkova Publisher: Springer Print ISBN: 9783319552569, 3319552562 eText ISBN: 9783319552576, 3319552570 Copyright year: 2017 Format: PDF Available from $ 209.00 USD SKU 9783319552576 This book focuses on the economic and political relationships between Russia and Europe, which are currently characterized by the existence and escalation of contradictions. On the one hand, the common history and geographical proximity of Russia and Europe have naturally produced a close interdependence; on the other, current global political affairs and opposing positions continue to hinder the development of common economic relationships in Russia and Europe. This contributed volume describes integration processes in Russia and Europe to illustrate best practice examples and demonstrates how both parties have increasingly come to understand the importance of international cooperation, highlighting economic, legal, philosophical, political and sociological aspects.
