Studying empires became a popular topic in modern political science. This book is one of the very few which investigates the Russian empire in retrospect. Sviatoslav Kaspe analyzes the ideal and institutional aspects of imperial organization, describes the major characteristics of a political system of this kind. Special attention is paid to changes happening to the empire in the course of modernization. The author applies his theory to explain Russian realities in the past and the present, as well as to suggest possible directions of evolution of Russian ethnopolitics. Bibliography (201 titles).
