Russian foreign policy in Eurasia: national interests and regional integration
In: Post-Soviet politics
"How do we interpret Russia's foreign policy in the South Caucasus? What is the relevance of this policy in the creation of the Eurasian Union? Is the Russia-centered regional integration project meant to contribute toward reestablishing Russian domination over former Soviet space? Employing a case-centric research design this book answers these questions by analyzing Russia's foreign policies in Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia, using neoclassical, realism and regime theories as frameworks. The fundamental aim of the book is to interpret Russia's foreign policies in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia and the relevance for those policies of the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union." --
