Conservatism is about managing change by ensuring that modernization evolves organically by building on the past. Conservatism has a natural attraction for Russia as its thousand-year long history is largely characterized by revolutionary change - the destructive process of uprooting the past to give way to modernity. Navigating towards gradual and organic modernization has been a key struggle ever since the Mongols invaded in the early 13\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century and decoupled Russia from Europe and the arteries of international trade. Russian history has consisted of avoiding revolutions that are either caused by falling behind on modernization or making great leaps forward that disrupts socio-economic and political traditions. Russian conservatives are now tasked with harmonizing the conservative ideas of the 19\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century with the revolutionary changes that shaped Russia in the 20\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century. The rise of Asia now provides new opportunities as it enables Russia to overcome its fixation on the West and develop a unique Russian path towards modernization that harmonizes its Eurasian geography and history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a lot to internalize and learn from this book.... [T]his is a welcome contribution to a theoretical framework. Political science in general, and International Relations in particular, is not known for its reactionary biases, to put it mildly, and therefore by definition lacks theoretical contributions from that side, which is a disservice to a neutral study of historical analysis. In that light, this book fills a notable gap.\u003c\/p\u003e * International Affairs *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword by Vladimir Yakunin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.
