June 2011 | #12 | Russian Foreign policy, 2000-2011: From Nation-State to Global Risk Shring. by Nicolai N. Petro
(published in: Jun, 2011)
Russian foreign policy thinking has evolved significantly in recent years. Defined throughout the 1990s by a notable lack of any clearly defined strategic course, there is now a clear vision of the type of global order that Russia wants. Russian foreign policy thinking is reaching far beyond traditional realism to embrace global risk sharing, although the extent to which the country ought to embrace a truly global security agenda is still hotly debated. Too little attention has been paid in the West to this intellectual evolution, and to what it says about Russia's long term foreign policy goals. -

August 2012 | #26 | Storia e fantasia nell’antichità slavo-orientale
(published in: Aug, 2012)
Le byline (dal russo byliny) sono composizioni epiche (quindi in versi) tramandate oralmente. La lingua in cui si esprimono è ibrida, essendo caratterizzata da tratti arcaici e anche dialettali, assorbiti in varie località e in varie epoche. Il termine bylina (ormai comunemente pluralizzato all’italiana) deriva dal passato del verbo “essere”, bylo “[ciò che] è stato, [ciò che] è avvenuto”. In origine le byline cantavano un fatto vero, probabilmente registrato anche nelle Cronache. Tuttavia.... -
