Messianic Consciousness With The Russian Foreign Policy

Diplomatic culture is a synthesis of special diplomatic ideas, understandings and arts, which is formed in the process of the history of a country when it intercourses with the outer world. .In my opinion, it is very important for us to be conscious of Russia's diplomatic culture and understand it, so that we can unscramble Russia's foreign policies and grasp its diplomacy trends in a profound way. Messianic Consciousness is one of the most important parts in Russia's diplomatic culture. Messianic Consciousness is derived from a religious term, Messiah, which refers to a collectivity or a nation's belief that they are chosen to save the world. The Russian has been believing in Orthodox Church for a long time, and the Messianic Consciousness has been deeply rooted in this nation. Russia's Messianic Consciousness is the mixture of Russia's traditional culture and the Orthodox civilization, and it has been .reinforced by the Russian scholars for centuries. Nowadays, the Messianic Consciousness has already overstepped the religious category with a complete set of theories and notions. In fact, it has become a part of the Russian Spirit, and turned into one of the core values of the nation. Messianic Consciousness has been intensively influencing Russia's foreign policy from the day it was formed. Rather than being static, this kind of influence twists and turns as the time going. To find out the rules of the change will instruct us to study Russia's diplomatic history, ongoing foreign policies and its trends.
