Abstract

Аутори овог рада испитују могућу промену курса у спољној политици Сједињених Америчких Држава и њено стратешко прилагођавање у односима са Русијом. Сједињене Америчке Државе биле су једина суперсила у свету након завршетка Хладног рата, али савремени међународни систем обележава растућа мултиполарност. Ова промена на међународној сцени узрокована је успоном две велике силе са ревизионистичким тенденцијама – Кине и Русије. Иако Кина представља главног геополитичког супарника САД, Русији не недостаје амбиција да утиче на актуелна светска дешавања. Могући релативни добитак у кинеско-америчком ривалству за САД могао би се постићи ближом сарадњом са Русијом. Иако би ово хипотетичко побољшање односа могло бити од користи за САД, аутори овог рада заузимају став да је приближавање између две земље тренутно мало вероватно. Користећи неокласични реализам као теоријски оквир, рад испитује могућу америчко-руску стратешку сарадњу, укључујући у анализу спољне и унутрашње факторе који утичу на државну спољну политику и стратешко прилагођавање. Рад такође испитује отварање САД према Кини током Хладног рата за време председничке администрације Ричарда Никсона и упоређује га са савременим стањем у свету.
