This is a major new study of the successor states that emerged in
the wake of the collapse of the great Russian, Habsburg, Iranian,
Ottoman and Qing Empires and of the expansionist powers who renewed
their struggle over the Eurasian borderlands through to the end of
the Second World War. Surveying the great power rivalry between the
Soviet Union, Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan for control over the
Western and Far Eastern boundaries of Eurasia, Alfred J. Rieber
provides a new framework for understanding the evolution of Soviet
policy from the Revolution through to the beginning of the Cold
War. Paying particular attention to the Soviet Union, the book
charts how these powers adopted similar methods to the old ruling
elites to expand and consolidate their conquests, ranging from
colonisation and deportation to forced assimilation, but applied
them with a force that far surpassed the practices of their
imperial predecessors.
