Despite harboring pseudoscientific and mystical ideas specific to Russia, all three movements were propagated by their followers as \"universal sciences,\" and all three vied for scientific supremacy and universal acceptance. Suppressed by the Bolsheviks and their state ideology as \"unscientific\" in the 1920s, Russian cosmism and Eurasianism led an esoteric underground existence during the Soviet period and re-emerged in the dying years of the Soviet Union, seeking not only to reclaim their \"scientific\" status but also to potentially fill the perplexing vacuum left by the ensuing demise of Soviet state ideology. This study relates the post-Soviet search for a new state ideology, or new National Idea, at the federal and regional levels, based on the Kremlin's projects and the case of the ethnic Republic of Kalmykia in south-west Russia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBaasanjav Terbish is affiliated researcher at the Mongolia and Inner Asia Studies Unit of the University of Cambridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 310\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 25, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48676130816249,"sku":"9781666905687","price":194.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/yqMRevaGNC9781666905687.webp?v=1784309076","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/state-ideology-science-and-pseudoscience-in-russia-between-the-cosmos-and-the-earth-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
