| Contents
Throughout the centuries, Russia is the only non-Western country that has been able to defend itself against Western imperialism. Russia did it by building a powerful state which influenced society and shaped it according to fiscal and military needs. This way, the only non-Western way to modern society was created; a unique alternative which was neither ¿European¿, nor ¿Asian¿, but ¿Russian¿ and/or ¿Soviet¿. This course follows Russian/Soviet history from the ending of serfdom 1861, the October Revolution of 1917, and the establishment of the Soviet State ¿ and the ending of this state in 1991.
