The breakup of the Soviet Union led to the creation of new states
and territorial conflicts of different levels of intensity.
Scrutinising the post-Soviet period, this volume offers
explanations for both the frequency and the intensity of crises in
the region. This book argues that the societies which emerged in
the post-Soviet space share characteristic features, and that the
instability and conflict-prone nature of the Soviet Union's
successor states can be explained by analysing the
post-independence history of the region and linking it to the
emergence of overlapping economic, political and violent crises
(called 'Intersecting Crises Phenomena'). Transformation itself is
shown to be a decisive process and, while acknowledging specific
national and regional characteristics and differences, the authors
demonstrate its shared impact. This comparison across countries and
over time presents patterns of crisis and crisis management common
to all the successor states. It disentangles the process,
highlighting the multifaceted features of post-Soviet crises and
draws upon the concept of crisis to determine the tipping points of
post-Soviet development. Especially useful for scholars and
students dealing with the Soviet successor states, this book should
also prove interesting to those researching in the fields of
communist and post-communist Studies, Eurasian politics,
international relations and peace and conflict studies.
