Changing Perceptions: How Russians and Americans View Each Other

The United States and Russia have traditionally formed perceptions of each other through the triple prism of media and popular culture, academic studies, and policy-oriented research. How has the current crisis in the relationship altered these perspectives? What larger trends are influencing our understanding of one another? The co-editors of the newly-published Russian/Soviet Studies in the United States/Amerikanistika in Russia will discuss these issues.
