History Politics and the Changing Meaning of Victory Day in Contemporary Russia

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterScientificpeer-review

Abstract

This chapter focuses on the role that the Great Patriotic War plays in Russia’s history politics, domestically but also transnationally, since its role cannot be accurately analysed uniquely in a Russian context and needs to be interpreted within a much wider geopolitical perspective.
