A Book about Russian Character

Timofei Bordachev’s “Strategy of Muscovite Russia” is primarily a book about the Russian national character, far from stereotypes. This character is flexible but at the same time stubborn, it subordinates to power and strength but does not identify them with law. While obeying, it does not simply wait for “God to change the Horde” but also acts, constantly keeping this perspective in mind.

Abstract

Timofei Bordachev’s “Strategy of Muscovite Russia” is primarily a book about the Russian national character, far from stereotypes. This character is flexible but at the same time stubborn, it subordinates to power and strength but does not identify them with law. While obeying, it does not simply wait for “God to change the Horde” but also acts, constantly keeping this perspective in mind.
