I believed then, as I do now, that it is an essential topic to study in order to try to answer two closely related questions: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhy in the twentieth century, after the Bolshevik coup, Russia has been a constant source of aggression? and Is there any hope that Russia can change radically, stop being an aggressor and become a peace-loving democratic nation like the EU and NATO countries? I tried to suggest my answers in the six lectures I gave in Brno between October and November 2022 in English. The university later proposed to publish them as a short book. I agreed with enthusiasm, hoping that my texts would contribute to a better understanding of the tragic fate of my people in past and present centuries, the processes that led to the war, and thus to the building of a more lasting peace once it is over.\" Andrey Borisovich Zubov\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrey Borisovich Zubov\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Masaryk University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788028003845","brand":"Masaryk University","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44475472576627,"sku":"9788028003845","price":35.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_3d8757ec-688b-426e-bed7-be0dc9adbe82.jpg?v=1774357192","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/the-russian-catastrophe-and-chances-to-overcome-it-9788028003845","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
