Synopsis

Looking beyond the headlines, this book offers a deep study of modern Russian military strategy, showing how it has been shaped over more than a century of conflict.

‘An important and timely book.’ – The Naval Review

Russian strategy has been described in terms of ‘hybrid’ warfare, an approach characterised by cyberattacks and disinformation campaigns. But as the invasion of Ukraine has brutally demonstrated, conventional armed violence remains a key element of Russian power.

In Blitzkrieg and the Russian art of war, Andrew Monaghan offers a high-level view of Russian thinking about warfare. Drawing on extensive Russian sources, he traces the evolution of the country’s military strategy through the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, exposing the misconceptions that have hindered the Western response.

Introducing key concepts from Russian military thinking, Blitzkrieg and the Russian art of war is a crucial resource for understanding Russia’s resurgent role on the global stage and the devastating threat the country poses to the international order.
