The International Politics of Eurasia: v. 10: The International Dimension of Post-communist Transitions in Russia and the New States of Eurasia

By S. Frederick Starr, Karen Dawisha Copyright 1997

    First Published in 2015. This book is the last in a series of ten volumes produced by the Russian Littoral Project. This volume shapes the view that despite the dramatic growth of high-quality Western scholarship on post-Soviet developments, the interaction between external influences and trends in Russia and the other post-Soviet countries has not received systematic analysis. The influence of outside actors on post-Soviet affairs is poorly understood.
