European Union, Russia and Post-Soviet Space: 2. Post-Soviet Space: overview, sub-regions and terminology in Russian and EU discourses .
Izotov Alexander Viktorovich
Questions:
How the Post-Soviet space can be regionalized? What sub-regions within the Post-Soviet space can be outlined?
What other regions are neighboring the Post-Soviet space?
What are “the alternative names” of the sub-regions of the Post-Soviet space that are dominant in either Russian or the EU/Western discourses and how this “terminological difference” does contribute to the academic debates on the Post-Soviet space?
