Synopsis

The present study offers an assessment of security concerns in Central Asia after the collapse of Soviet Union in 1991. It deals with the transition period for the five Central Asian States from the communist system to a democratic and pluralistic one. Essentially, the focus of the writer is on bilateral, multilateral and international commitments of these States to ensure peace and security in the region. The withdrawal of nuclear warheads from Kazakhstan, collective security formula, bilateral agreements and the role of the big powers- all make an interesting study. The author has discussed these concerns in the context of the stance of neighbouring States vis-a-vis Central Asia. Economic interests also figure wherever necessary. This work is highly useful to those who would like to concentrate on any aspect of history in Central Asia and adjoining regions in the post-Soviet period., About The Author:- Dr. Tabassum firdous, a noted researcher in Political Science, is a Lecturer in International Relations, at Centre of Central Asian Studies, Kashmir University., Contents:- Contents # Foreword : Acknowledgement : Introduction : Soviet Union: Hurtling Towards the Collapse : Central Asia on the Eve of Revolution : Sovereignty, Defence and Political Structure : Russia and Central Asia: Security Concerns : Central Asia: The New Great Game : Appendix : Bibliography : Index.
