Geopolitics is a topic that again has taken the frontline in discussions of how to interpret Russia’s foreign policy or Russia’s relations with the West. Geopolitical thinking in Russia has often been identified with different schools of neo-Eurasianism, extreme versions of which contain expansionist, nationalist ideas. However, these schools do not characterize university teaching of geopolitics in Russia as a whole. Instead, teachers of geopolitics focus mainly on introducing various theoretical models and criticizing representatives of neo-Eurasianism. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate with survey data that there are differences in what we might call the published discipline and the taught discipline of geopolitics in Russia.

专业地缘政治理想：俄罗斯地缘政治的作用

地缘政治这个话题再次成为讨论如何解释俄罗斯外交政策或俄罗斯与西方关系的话题。俄罗斯的地缘政治思想经常被新欧亚主义的不同流派所认同，其极端版本包含扩张主义的民族主义思想。但是，这些学校总体上不具有俄罗斯地缘政治大学教学的特点。取而代之的是，地缘政治老师主要集中于介绍各种理论模型和批评新欧亚主义的代表。本文的目的是通过调查数据证明在我们可以称之为俄罗斯地缘政治的已出版学科和所学的学科之间存在差异。
