Why is Russia, a country with a rich culture, lagging behind the West in economic development? Dmitri Travin offers an unexpected look at this question, destroying well-established myths about slave culture, innate laziness or a special way. In his in-depth research, the author reveals the real historical reasons for Russia’s lag, analyzing the influence of nomads, geographical location and political processes, while he compares the development of Russia and Europe, showing how the modern economy and statehood were formed in the West.
The book immerses the reader in the fascinating world of medieval politics, Renaissance culture and nascent capitalism. The author not only explains the reasons for the Russian backlog, but also gives hope for overcoming historical obstacles. “Why did Russia fall behind?” is a fascinating journey into the past that will help us better understand our country’s present and future.
