- W153162958 abstract "The question of Russia’s relationship with Europe has long been vexed and emotive. For some, the Russians are the barbarians at the gates, Asian intruders at a western feast. Converted to Christianity through Byzantium, they never had the benefit of Roman law and Catholic culture. Succumbing to the Tartar invasion of the thirteenth century, for two hundred years they were virtually cut off from western commercial and intellectual currents. They barely felt the impact of either the Renaissance or the Reformation. They remained largely immune to the Enlightenment and their autocratic political system was unaffected by the constitutional development triggered by 1789 and 1848. The revolution of 1917 set Russia on a path which again diverged sharply from the West. The three-quarters of a century of Communist rule which followed forged a society, a system, a culture fundamentally at odds with that of contemporary western Europe. For others, Russia forms an integral part of Europe. The Russians are one of the family of white Caucasian nations living to the west of the Urals. They share with the west of the continent a common Christian heritage which in the world perspective is of far greater significance than denominational differences. For all Russia’s periods of intellectual isolation, the culture of Pushkin and Lermontov, Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky and Turgenev, Pasternak and Solzhenytsin is unmistakably European. Though uneven and fluctuating, Russia’s commercial links as well as her military and diplomatic entanglements with her western neighbours have played a vital role in her development. It defies common sense to treat as anything other than European a state and a people of the East European Plain whose fate has been so intimately bound up with that of the rest of the continent. The difficulties in the way of arriving at any consensus on the subject are manifold. Part of the problem lies in the ill-defined concept ‘European’. What is common to Spain, Norway and Sicily, Warsaw, Athens and Belgrade? Even if consideration is restricted to the Great Powers of the modern era, much depends on whether the term denotes a civilization centred on Paris and London, or on Berlin" @default.
