In order to analyse configurations of power that transcend the
territorial trap, the Caucasus is an excellent case in point. Its
past and present exhibit an extraordinary richness in power
practices of diverse forms that intersect on various scales. This
comprehensive volume offers an innovative procedural perspective on
the actual workings of power not necessarily tied to the
nation-state. Its focus goes well beyond national scales to tackle
the manifold impacts of transboundary flows. The authors, from a
wide range of academic disciplines, provide original empirical data
from this intriguing but largely untapped region, with respect to
the critical study of statehood. They also shed light on the
diversity of political space and the ongoing process of spatial
re-alignment. The chapters in this collection focus on: land
governance practice in the North Caucasus; practices of local
administration in Georgia; Shia influence from Iran in Azerbaijan;
and trajectories of Ottoman influence in Adjara and Abkhazia
respectively. They cover the South as well as North Caucasus,
examining configurations of power that entangle smaller and larger
scales, and providing perspectives on transboundary flows between
the area and both Turkey and Iran. This book was originally
published as a special issue of the journal Eurasian Geography and
Economics.
