El presente trabajo hace un recuento histórico de cómo han concebido los rusos (y los soviéticos) la frontera. La frontera rusa siempre ha estado en continuo cambio, y el país ha sido al mismo tiempo agresor y agredido. Por razones históricas, la frontera soviética fue muy vigilada y controlada por el pcus al punto de volverla casi impermeable. En los primeros años de la transición se dio un relajamiento de la política fronteriza que paradójicamente la volvió no sólo inestable sino que puso a la Federación Rusa al borde de la balcanización. Tanto Putin como Medvedev revirtieron este proceso. En la actualidad, gracias a las presiones y poca colaboración occidental, Rusia ha emprendido una agresiva política fronteriza que amenaza con ser expansiva. La enorme diáspora rusa ha resultado una justificación exitosa para la expansión de la frontera rusa. 2010-07-01 2021-06-03T03:34:07Z 2021-06-03T03:34:07Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion No moralist historical and political analysis Análisis histórico no moralista y político https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/122 10.21670/ref.2010.22.a01 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6477 spa https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/122/230 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/122/231 Derechos de autor 2014 Estudios Fronterizos, Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades application/pdf text/html Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 11 No. 22 (2010); 9-48 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 11 Núm. 22 (2010); 9-48 2395-9134 0187-6961 |

Russian foreign policy is judged by the Western world on the basis of a series of depreciatory adjectives. The aim of this paper is to effect an historical review of the Russian (and Soviet) perception of their frontier. The Russian frontier is continually changing; and the country has been both invader as well as invaded. For historical reasons, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union kept both a close watch and a strong control over the Soviet frontier, to the point of rendering it almost impenetrable. During the early years of transition, border policies relaxed consederably, to the point of instability and placing the Russian Federation on the verge of balkanization. Both Putin and Medvedev put a stop to this process. Now, partially as a result of Western pressure and reluctance to cooperate, Russia has undertaken an aggressive border policy that threatens expansion. The enormous Russian diaspora has turned out to be a successful justification for the expansion of the Russian border. |
