Title ProperPopular geopolitics feedback loop
Other Title Informationthinking beyond the ‘Russia against the West’ paradigm
LanguageENG
AuthorSaunders, Robert A ;  Strukov, Vlad
Summary / Abstract (Note)Treating popular geopolitics as an interdisciplinary environment, this essay interrogates the viability of employing popular geopolitics as a tool for understanding the relationship between the popular and the political on the international stage as it relates to the Russian Federation. Using several representative artefacts of pop-culture and their reception, we attempt to demonstrate that a powerful trans-regional feedback loop has been established, wherein Russian and ‘Western’ currents feed into and off of each other. These flows sustain older geopolitical codes and frames, while steadily developing new patterns and dimensions of exchange that ‘explain’ variations triggered by the vagaries of globalisation.
