Overview
Laila Porras detalla cĆ³mo se transformĆ³ Rusia desde su etapa soviĆ©tica hasta su integraciĆ³n al capitalismo, su desarrollo econĆ³mico, el ajedrez siniestro de sus oligarquĆas, su regreso como potencia militar y el afĆ”n de sus Ć©lites por volver a su naciĆ³n artĆfice y lĆder de un nuevo orden mundial multipolar.
La violenta invasiĆ³n de Rusia a Ucrania encendiĆ³ numerosos debates al cuestionar con severidad la intervenciĆ³n militar; las condenas y acusaciones han puesto a Rusia āno sin razĆ³nā como un verdugo y han estimulado a diversos paĆses a emitir juicios reprobatorios a los dictados de Vladimir Putin. Pero pocos analistas ofrecen un argumento neutral, preciso y profundo sobre los orĆgenes de este conflicto, como los expuestos en este libro. Para entender la guerra entre Rusia y Ucrania, que excede ampliamente sus fronteras al ser esta Ćŗltima apoyada econĆ³mica y militarmente por lo que Putin llama āel Occidente colectivoā, la autora nos presenta un estudio claro y pertinente de una historia compartida por ambas naciones y analiza las diversas fuentes externas del conflicto: geopolĆticas y econĆ³micas, como el pacto roto de la OTAN y las presiones econĆ³micas de la UniĆ³n Europea hacia Ucrania; ambos desarrollos percibidos por Rusia como un cerco militar y econĆ³mico que amenaza su soberanĆa y seguridad. Evoca los conflictos geopolĆticos en la zona originados por el control de las rutas de los hidrocarburos, entre otros.
La Odisea rusa destroza la comentocracia de nuestros tiempos y nos ofrece explicaciones sĆ³lidas del peregrinaje histĆ³rico, econĆ³mico y polĆtico de Ucrania, las invasiones extranjeras en su territorio durante siglos y su lucha por establecerse como naciĆ³n independiente, asĆ como las paradojas entre la cercanĆa y la distancia con Rusia y su posiciĆ³n como punto estratĆ©gico para intereses econĆ³micos y militares de Estados Unidos y de la UniĆ³n Europea, asĆ como de Rusia, obstinados en afanes de expansiĆ³n y abierta lucha mercantil.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Russia's violent invasion of Ukraine sparked numerous debates regarding the military intervention. The convictions and accusations have put Russia ānot without reasonā as an executioner and have encouraged various countries to pass judgments disapproving of Vladimir Putin's dictates. Few analysts offer a neutral, precise, and profound argument about the origins of this conflict, like the ones presented in this book.
To understand the war between Russia and Ukraine--which widely exceeds its borders, as the latter is supported economically and militarily by what Putin calls "the collective West"-- the author presents a clear and pertinent study of a history shared by both nations. The book analyzes the conflictās various external sources: geopolitical and economic, such as the broken NATO pact and the economic pressures of the European Union towards Ukraine. Both developments are perceived by Russia as military and economic sieges that threaten its sovereignty and security.
With that in mind, Porras evokes the geopolitical conflicts in the area caused by the control of hydrocarbon routes, among others issues. The author details how Russia was transformed from its Soviet stage to its integration into capitalism, its economic development, the sinister game of chess played by its oligarchies, its return as a military power, and the eagerness of its elites to return to their nation as the architects and leaders of a new multipolar world order.
The Russian Odyssey shatters the rising commentocracy of our times and offers solid explanations of Ukraine's historical, economic, and political pilgrimage, the foreign invasions on its territory for centuries, and its struggle to establish itself as an independent nation, as well as the paradoxes between distance and proximity with Russia, and its position as a strategic point for the economic and military interests of the United States and the European Union. The book also comments on Russiaās obstinate desire for expansion and open mercantile struggle.
