Author: Alessandra De Luca, Antonello Canzano Giansante

Abstract

This study investigates the cultural factor of Eurasianism under an ideological perspective in order to provide an overview of its potential threats. It reviews historical conceptualizations and Dugin’s Neo Eurasianism and examines its political applications. Finally, focusing on the Georgian and Ukrainian cases, the ideology’s influence on geopolitical balances and global security is analyzed to assess its effects on international relations.

Keywords: Eurasianism, ideology, geopolitics, global security
