Books by J. L. Black

This book presents a comprehensive survey of the current state of Russia and how Russia is likely to develop in the immediate future.

This monograph focuses on the final third of Nicholas Karamzin's life, on his career at court (1816-26) and on the cultural heritage he left to the Russian Empire.

J. L. Black's latest work is a rich and carefully crafted attempt to expose the textures of Russia's perceptions of itself and its place in the world. Based almost entirely on Russian sources, Vladimir Putin and the New World Order argues that to understand Russian foreign policymaking, international situations must be viewed through the prism of Russian analysts and officials.
