This book examines Russia's emergence after the collapse of the
Soviet Union and its creation of a security architecture in the
post-Soviet space. Many scholars argue that Russia is a coercive
power in the region that forces states to act in only its own
interests. While acknowledging Russia's power this author argues
that it is not able to merely force states to behave as it wants
them to. Instead, Russia must use bilateral and multilateral
cooperation to develop a security architecture that provides order,
stability and predictable behavior for both Russia as the hegemon
and the weaker powers in the region. By building this security
architecture, Russia and the other states in the post-Soviet space
are better able to achieve their strategic goals and provide for
their own security. To achieve this, weaker states are able to
press for certain concessions from Russia regarding how to
structure bilateral relations as well as multilateral
organizations. While Western politicians have argued that Russia
has tried to reestablish the Soviet Union through coercive means,
the reality is much more of a nuanced interaction among all of the
states in the region, which ensures state sovereignty while
allowing the weaker states to pursue their own interests. Using
network analysis, this author shows how the regional structural
architecture of cooperation was built and indicate how Russia is
able to achieve order. This book also shows that there is a lack of
order where states have refused to cooperate in building the
structural architecture, which has led to conflict and territorial
disputes.
