The disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991 rapidly and
irrevocably transformed Central Asia's political landscape. This
region of five sovereign states with a population of some fifty
million people quickly became a major focus of interest and
influence for competing poles of power. The eminent contributors to
this volume offer a four-part analysis of the region's new
importance in world affairs. Rajan Menon examines the place of
Central Asia in a global perspective, while Dimitri Trenin looks at
it from the standpoint of traditional hegemon Russia. Huasheng Zhao
provides the view from economic superpower-in-the-making China, and
Eugene Rumer represents the position of the post-9/11 United
States.
