Russian Empire offers new perspectives on the strategies of imperial rule pursued by rulers, officials, scholars, and subjects of the Russian empire. An international team of scholars explores the connections between Russia's expansion over vast territories occupied by people of many ethnicities, religions, and political experiences and the evolution of imperial administration and vision. The fresh research reflected in this innovative volume reveals the ways in which the realities of sustaining imperial power in a multiethnic, multiconfessional, scattered, and diffuse environment inspired political imaginaries and set limits on what the state could accomplish. Taken together, these rich essays provide important new frameworks for understanding Russia's imperial geography of power.
. . . [I]mpressive...Recommended. Graduate students, faculty.

Russian Empire
I like the idea of an oral history of the "Sputnik Generation," more or less Russia's baby boomers, and the eight interviews here open the door. Definitely interested in reading about the changes in Soviet living conditions, the access to pop culture, and the subjects' reflections on politics, education, and ideology. The problem is the narrow focus--probably the result of no other options available--with all of the subjects from the same class at the same school. Beyond that, it reads like an unstructured transcription locked into a fairly tight format that makes things tough read. Don't know whether it's realistic to expect an English language expansion, but if there is one, I'll read it.
