In Russia a group of leading Russian intellectuals and social scientists join with top researchers from the world to examine the social, political, and economic transformation of Russia. This timely and important book of original essays makes clear that neither politics nor economics alone holds the key to Russia's future, presenting critical perspectives on challenges facing Russia, both in its domestic policies and in its international relations. It also explores how global order - or disorder - may develop over the coming decades.

Cet article analyse le transfert aux pays d'Europe de l'Est des normes libérales-démocratiques dans le domaine des relations civilo-militaires au cours de la dernière décennie. Les auteurs ont recours à une nouvelle approche - la « politique du mimétisme » - et explorent à ce titre la transformation des relations civilo-militaires comme étant un série d'interactions complexes entre, d'une part, les modèles traditionnels et tenaces d'activité institutionnelle, et, d'autre part, de nouvelles politiques et de nouvelles normes qui ont été introduites en fonction de politiques axées sur I'OTAN et VUE et adoptées par la plupart des États est-européens au début des années 1990, et d'un ensemble de conditions imposées par les organisations internationales. Les auteurs mettent en perspective les différences régionales dans le processus du transfert des normes en comparant les cas de l'Europe centrale et de la Russie. Cette approche permet ainsi d'exposer de nombreuses dimensions de la synthèse émergente entre les anciennes et les nouvelles normes. Une telle synthèse démontre que ces États (et cela est particulièrement évident dans le cas de la Russie) peuvent se protéger des défis externes. La principale conclusion de l'article suggère que les nouveaux systèmes émergents d'Europe de l'Est, grâce au mimétisme institutionnel et normatif, cherchent leur propre voie de transformation.
