With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, fifteen newly
independent states emerged from the imperial wreckage, some more
ready than others to grasp their new found independence. This book
tackles the seminal question related to these broader developments:
Why did some states choose to align with Russia, despite Moscow's
overwhelming power advantage and recurrent neoimperial ambitions?
To answer this question, Eric A. Miller develops and tests a
theoretical framework that extends traditional realist alignment
theories to include domestic level political and economic variables
critical to the study of the Commonwealth of Independent States
(CIS). Specifically, Miller argues that internal political threats
to CIS leaders and the extent of a country's economic dependence on
Russia were the most influential factors in determining alignments.
The book is designed to meet the need for a thorough theoretical
and scholarly assessment of the international and domestic politics
of CIS countries. relations, comparative politics, international
political economy, and policy studies, the book is intended for
scholars of post-Soviet studies, international relations theory,
and security studies.
