초록
The current and future stability of Central Asia remains in a dynamic and fluid state of flux. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, all five new Republics embarked on the road to democracy and national identity. Over the intervening years ruling elites have consolidated their positions, disparity of wealth has increased, whilst energy exploitation and the Global War on Terror have been acted out within the region. This paper will articulate the complex set of relationships between the Republics, external and trans-national actors. A hypothesis will be developed that will examine these relationships and the effects that they are having on the political, economic and societal aspects of Central Asia; and their direct and indirect effects on the regions stability in the short to medium term.
Abstract
The current and future stability of Central Asia remains in a dynamic and fluid state of flux. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, all five new Republics embarked on the road to democracy and national identity. Over the intervening years ruling elites have consolidated their positions, disparity of wealth has increased, whilst energy exploitation and the Global War on Terror have been acted out within the region. This paper will articulate the complex set of relationships between the Republics, external and trans-national actors. A hypothesis will be developed that will examine these relationships and the effects that they are having on the political, economic and societal aspects of Central Asia; and their direct and indirect effects on the regions stability in the short to medium term.
