Description

This book examines the transformation of Eurasianist historiographic and historiosophic concepts within the Soviet post-Stalinist intellectual milieu.

By researching the most understated phase in the development of Eurasianism between the late 1950s and the early 1990s, Michal Racyn follows the reception of the initial historiographic and historiosophic concepts of interwar Eurasianist movement formulated by the influential intellectuals involved in the transformation of Eurasianism before the dissolution of the USSR. Framing Eurasianist ideas in the broader context of Soviet academia and Russian nationalist activity within the USSR, The Transformation of Eurasianism in Soviet Intellectual Milieu, 1950s-1990s introduces the revised concept of trans-Eurasianism and argues that, even though Eurasianism ceased to exist by the mid-1930s as an official movement, in the second half of the 20th century individual Eurasianist concepts did not lose its relevance.
