More about the book

The book explores Russophobia, characterizing it as an irrational fear of Russia that has been perpetuated through Western propaganda. It examines the historical portrayal of Russia as the "Other," contrasting it with Western ideals, particularly during the Cold War. The narrative highlights how propaganda simplifies complex geopolitical relations into binary oppositions, fostering contempt and fear. While it can unite and mobilize, propaganda also risks irrational decision-making, complicating the pursuit of peace and understanding between cultures.
