Description
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, conflict in the former USSR has been a key concern in international security.
This book fills a gap in the literature on violent conflict, evaluating a region that contains all the modern ingredients for instability and aggression.
Bringing together leading experts on war and security, the book addresses current debates in international relations about power, interests, globalisation and the politics of identity as major drivers of contemporary war.
Incidents such as the 2008 Russo-Georgian conflict, the wars in Chechnya, and Russia's struggles over national identity and resources with former communist states are all thoroughly examined.
With new issues like energy security, terrorism and transnational crime, and older tensions between East and West threatening to deepen once more, this is an important contribution to the international security literature.
