With the region of the Caucasus with its ongoing, and even
deteriorating, crisis and instability and its strategic and
economic importance increasingly at the front of the world's
attention, this volume presents and discusses some of the
complexities and problems arising in the region such as Islamic
terrorists and al-Qaida. Scholars from different disciplines who
specialise in the Caucasus analyze key topics such as: discussions
of grass root perceptions the influence of informal power
structures on ethnic conflicts in the Caucasus Russian policies
towards Islam and their destabilising influence the influence of
Islamic revival on the legal and social situations nationalism and
the revival of pre- and sub-national identities shifts in identity
as reflected in demography reasons for the Chechen victory in the
first Chechen war the involvement of Islamic volunteers in
Chechnya. With the situation in Chechnia likely to spread across
the entire North Caucasus, this cutting edge work will be of great
value in the near future and will interest political scientists and
regional experts of Russia, Central Asia, Caucasus, Middle East and
Turkey, as well as NGOs, government agencies and think tanks.
