The Foundations of Geopolitics: The Geopolitical Future of Russia is a geopolitical book by Aleksandr Dugin. Its publication in 1997 was well received in Russia; it has had significant influence within the Russian military, police, and foreign policy elites,^[1]^[2] and has been used as a textbook in the Academy of the General Staff of the Russian military.^[1]^[3] Powerful Russian political figures subsequently took an interest in Dugin,^[4] a Russian political analyst who espouses an ultranationalist and neo-fascist ideology based on his idea of neo-Eurasianism,^[5] who has developed a close relationship with Russia's Academy of the General Staff.^[6]

Dugin credits General Nikolai Klokotov of the Academy of the General Staff as co-author and his main inspiration,^[7] though Klokotov denies this.^[3] Colonel General Leonid Ivashov, head of the International Department of the Russian Ministry of Defence, helped draft the book.^[8]

After unsuccessful interventions in post-Soviet party politics, Mr. Dugin focused on developing his influence where it counted — with the military and policymakers. With the publication in 1997 of his 600-page textbook, loftily titled 'The Foundations of Geopolitics: The Geopolitical Future of Russia,' Eurasianism moved to the center of strategists' political imagination. In Mr. Dugin's adjustment of Eurasianism to present conditions, Russia had a new opponent — no longer just Europe, but the whole of the 'Atlantic' world led by the United States.
