Connectivity, as well as conflict, characterizes Eurasia. This
edited volume explores dynamic geopolitical and geo-economic links
reconfiguring spaces from the eastern edge of Europe through the
western edge of Asia, seeking explanation beyond description. The
ancient Silk Road tied together space, much as pipelines,
railroads, telecommunications infrastructure, and similar cultural
and constructed links ease the mobility of people and products in
modern Eurasia. This book considers Eurasia along an interlinked
corridor, with chapters illustrating the connections as a
discussion foundation focusing on the shared interactions of a set
of nation states through time and across space, generating more
positive considerations of the resurgently important region of
Eurasia. China's interests fall into three chapters: the
southeastern border with Vietnam, the southwestern Himalayan edge,
and the western Muslim regions. Russia's recovery relates events to
a larger landmass context and focuses on the importance of historic
mobility. A geo-history of the Caspian considers this
petroleum-rich area as a zone of cultural and economic
interconnection. The final focus on Central Asia treats the
traditional heart of "Eurasia". The concluding chapter pulls
together strands linking subregions for a new concept of "Eurasia"
as an area linked by vital interests and overlapping histories.
