Diplomatic Relations with the Transvaal in the Context of Russian Foreign Policy of the Late 19th Century
This article examines the establishment of diplomatic relations between Russia and the Transvaal in 1898, placing it within the broader context of Russian foreign policy in the late 19th century. While previous studies have explored the negotiations surrounding this event, this article delves deeper into the motivations behind Russia’s interest in the Transvaal.

Leo Tolstoy’s Anti-Colonial Views and Their Influence on Liberation Movements in Africa
Leo Tolstoy is one of the few Russian thinkers of the pre-Soviet era whose views influenced leaders of liberation movements in Africa.

The…
Moulding South African Public Opinion on Economic Cooperation with Russia
A study of over 300 articles and opinion pieces in popular and academic publications in South Africa, issued in 2016–2021, shows that South African journalists and political scientists are sceptical of large state-sponsored economic projects involving Russian state companies. Statements by the Russian partners that the current economic initiatives uphold the tradition of Soviet assistance to the anti-apartheid movement are interpreted by critics …
