Résumé anglais Janet M. Hartley, Is Russia part of Europe ? Russian perceptions of Europe in the reign of Alexander I. This article examines the reign of Alexander I ( 1801 - 1825) as a period of transition in the relationship between Russia and "the West". During his reign Russia's standing as a European power increased markedly and she became a dominant member of the European diplomatic community, playing a role in countries and in events which had no direct bearing on her own security. At the same time, hopes amongst some educated Russians that Alexander would adopt the constitutional, and possibly even the social, structure of Western European countries were not realized. The Decembrist revolt was the result of diverging views of "Europe" and Russia's place in it as perceived by Alexander and some of his subjects.
