Beyond Frozen Conflict

Scenarios for the Separatist Disputes of Eastern Europe

Rowman & Littlefielderscheint am15.04.2029
The five unresolved separatist conflicts of the post-Soviet space in Eastern Europe are a risk to Europe's stability and security. Four of these - Abkhazia; South Ossetia; Transnistria; and Nagorny Karabakh all date back to the collapse of the Soviet Union around 1991-92 and have become known as frozen conflicts. The fifth is Ukraine's Donbas, which saw large parts of its Donetsk and Luhansk regions split violently from Kyiv in 2014, at a cost of 13,000 human lives so far, mainly due to Russia's support of hybrid warfare there. This book is the first to give an up-to-date account of all five conflicts in an analytically consistent manner. Uniquely, it explores a full range of scenarios for the possible future of all five conflicts and offers a basis of sound information for officials, diplomats, scholars and the general public. The first edition of this book, published in mid-2020, correctly saw the unresolved conflict over Nagorny Karabakh as the most likely to see a new war, which is precisely what happened later that year. This second edition includes a completely rewritten chapter on the dramatic reversal by Azerbaijan with Turkish support of the gains made by Armenia in the first war two decades ago.mehr

KlappentextThe five unresolved separatist conflicts of the post-Soviet space in Eastern Europe are a risk to Europe's stability and security. Four of these - Abkhazia; South Ossetia; Transnistria; and Nagorny Karabakh all date back to the collapse of the Soviet Union around 1991-92 and have become known as frozen conflicts. The fifth is Ukraine's Donbas, which saw large parts of its Donetsk and Luhansk regions split violently from Kyiv in 2014, at a cost of 13,000 human lives so far, mainly due to Russia's support of hybrid warfare there. This book is the first to give an up-to-date account of all five conflicts in an analytically consistent manner. Uniquely, it explores a full range of scenarios for the possible future of all five conflicts and offers a basis of sound information for officials, diplomats, scholars and the general public. The first edition of this book, published in mid-2020, correctly saw the unresolved conflict over Nagorny Karabakh as the most likely to see a new war, which is precisely what happened later that year. This second edition includes a completely rewritten chapter on the dramatic reversal by Azerbaijan with Turkish support of the gains made by Armenia in the first war two decades ago.
