The geopolitical environment surrounding Central Asia and the Caucasus has changed dramatically over the past decade, with important implications for American and European interests. Regional and great powers have accorded the region ever greater attention, and the regional states themselves have developed a greater agency in responding to the geopolitical challenges confronting them. European, and in particular American, perceptions of the region have not kept up with these changes and are in need of updating.
In this book, distinguished scholars move the discussion forward in 15 areas:
China's Ascent in Central Asia and the Caucasus
Russian Strategy Towards the Caucasus and Central Asia
Iran's Policy toward the Caucasus and Central Asia
The Dawn of Turan
The EU'S Growing Presence in Central Asia and the Caucasus
India's Changing Approach towards Central Asia and the Caucasus after the Afghanistan Debacle and the War in Ukraine
Japan as no other
Bureaucratic Morass and Conceptual Pitfalls: America's Approach to Central Asia and the Caucasus
Azerbaijan's Strategic Patience in a Changing World
Georgian Foreign Policy Strategy in Uncertain Times
Between Scylla and Charybdis: Kazakhstan's Foreign Policy in Pursuit of a New Equilibrium
Kyrgyzstan and the Changing Geopolitics of Central Asia
Turkmenistan Lifts Its Head
Uzbekistan 2.0: Continuity and Change in Foreign Policy
