Crisis in the Caucasus: Russia, Georgia and the West cover

This collection of essays by a series of academic specialists examines the crisis stemming from the Russian invasion of Georgia in August 2008 from a range of standpoints. The chapters probe the geopolitical and strategic dimensions of the crisis as well as the longer term military and diplomatic implications for Europe and the central Asian region. The collection will be of major importance to students of Russia and Eastern Europe, military analysts as well as journalists and politicians concerned with what some observers have termed a "new cold war" between Russia and the West.

This book was published as a special issue of Small Wars and Insurgencies.

"[T]he book provides a very useful, comprehensive and unique combination of topics that will retain its validity for use by individuals or states seeking to engage in this crucial region in the future." - Kelly Pegus, Macquarie University, Australia
