"As the number of peacekeeping efforts conducted internationally
under the aegis of military forces increases, thers is more
pressure to resolve the dilemma inherent in all peacekeeping
activities-how to combine efficiency with legitimacy. This dilemma
is particularly acute in the many conflicts that have mushroomed in
the Eurasian region following the disintegration of the Soviet
state. Given the history of Soviet Russian repression of
ethnicnational entities, can Russia-the USSR's primary heir-be
relied on to resolve rather than inflame conflicts in the other
post-Soviet states and regions? In order to answer this question,
the contributors to this timely volume evaluate the factors that
guarantee Russia's intervention in its ""near abroad."" They debate
whether Russian ""peacekeeping"" is legitimate according to
international norms or whether it may be a harbinger of
""neoimperialism."" Finally, they explore the origins and
effectiveness of Russia's intervention in four cases of regional
conflict and discuss the complexities of broader multilateral
involvement."
