Summary
"Russia and the European Union are neighbors. Historically, economically, and culturally, these two have been closely linked. Nonetheless, Russia and the EU still struggle to find a common language. Suspicions rooted in the decades of confrontation between East and West have not yet been overcome. Perception patterns and conceptions of identity that were formed over the course of years thus have a lasting effect on EU-Russia relations. This collection disentangles these perception structures. Specifically, the development of conceptions of "self" and "other" within Germany and Russia are explored, as are the inter-cultural discourse between the two countries, the evolution of enemy images, and differences in their value systems. In addition to an historical analysis, investigations of German and Russian media and interviews with representatives of German and Russian elites supply the data to examine the perception patterns each side exhibits. The volume demonstrates that only such an approach can provide the necessary background for a critical discussion of EU-Russia relations"--
