Abstract

The article focuses on analyses of transformation processes in Brazil and Russia from the perspective of the multiple modernities theory. It is argued that a comparative-historical study of Brazil and Russia should take into account the impact of religious traditions and institutions on social and political changes, the unequal length and intensity of the imperial experience, the degree of openness towards western liberal modernity. The legacy of the Soviet period is regarded as the main difference of contemporary Russia from Latin American societies.
