For anyone interested in contemporary Serbian affairs or in how Russia wields influence beyond its borders, this is an exceptionally useful volume.” -- Sabrina P. Ramet, Norwegian University of Science and Technology “While the book spotlights the phenomenon of Russian media presence in Serbia, it usefully moves beyond the canonical paradigm of the research in propaganda and soft power. Instead, it engages with the area studies in politics, ideology and media in both Russia and Serbia and proposes an analytical framework for understanding the international impact of Russia’s ideology as a “two-way traffic” of ideas, metaphors, and political visions. The book, thus, attains a truly stereoscopic understanding of the reasons for Putinism’s broad resonance beyond its own country.” -- Mikhail Suslov, University of Copenhagen Author InformationVladimir Đorđević is associate professor in the Department of Area Studies at the Faculty of Regional Development and International Studies, Mendel University.
