NUPI’s annual Russia conference 2014: “Russia and global (dis)order”

2014 has been characterized by international conflict, in Ukraine and elsewhere and dramatically increased tensions between the West and Russia. Why has the relationship between Russia and the West gone so sour? How does this development manifest itself in wider international relations? How does Russia perceive world order, and do they have a distinct vision of it? What does Russia want with international institutions?
