Arctic Mirrors: Radical Evil and the Power of Good in History Paperback - 1996
by Yuri Slezkine
First line
One of the main reasons for the emergence of the Rus principalities was the fur trade, and some of the best furs came from the northern frontier.
From the rear cover
'This fascinating and authoritative book covers the history of relations between Russian civilization and the hunter-gatherer peoples of northern Eurasia. Slezkine charts changing Russian policies toward these circumpolar cultures beginning with the fur trade...in the eleventh century, through the expansion of the Russian empire under the tsars, to the modernization policies of the Soviets. He argues that attention to this kind of history reveals as much about the construction of Russian identity as it does about the cultural identity of the northern 'others.'
