The book explores Russophobia as an irrational fear of Russia, highlighting its role in Western propaganda throughout history. It contrasts the West and Russia through various dichotomies, such as civilized versus barbaric and democracy versus authoritarianism, particularly during the Cold War. The narrative suggests that Russia has been portrayed either as a subordinate student of Western civilization or as a threatening adversary. While propaganda can unify and mobilize, it often leads to irrational decisions and hinders the possibility of peace, complicating the understanding of international relations.
