In early 2005 regional protests in Kyrgyzstan soon became national
ones as protesters seized control of the country's capital,
Bishkek. The country's president for fifteen years, Askar Akaev,
fled the country and after a night of extensive looting, a new
president, Kurmanbek Bakiev, came to power. The events quickly
earned the epithet 'Tulip Revolution' and were interpreted as the
third of the colour revolutions in the post-Soviet space, following
Ukraine and Georgia. But did the events in Kyrgyzstan amount to a
'revolution'? How much change followed and with what academic and
policy implications? This innovative, unique study of these events
brings together a new generation of Kyrgyz scholars together with
established international observers to assess what happened in
Kyrgyzstan and after, and the wider implications. This book was
published as a special issue of Central Asian Survey.
