After Karabakh: War, Peace, and the Forging of a New Caucasus

The outcome of the Second Karabakh War is a watershed event in the modern history of Eurasia. It represents the moment of conception of a new South Caucasus, the only part of the world that borders on Russia, Turkey, and Iran. Unsurprisingly, external powers like the U.S., China, the EU, India, and the GCC states are all taking greater interest in its future. Written for scholars and designed for classroom use, AFTER KARABAKH: War, Peace, and the Forging of a New Caucasus is the go-to book for anyone trying to make sense of the geopolitics of this often-misunderstood conflict. As the editors argue in their Introduction, the end of the conflict over Karabakh "will serve as a catalyst for the instauration of a much-anticipated peace dividend centered on optimizing the region's strategic connectivity potential."

As Michael Doran writes in the Foreword, AFTER KARABAKH "performs a great service to students of international politics. We now have in one volume a set of comprehensive analyses of the main dimensions of the Second Karabakh War. By producing sharp, judicious, and readable accounts, the authors, who are all internationally recognized experts in their fields, have ensured that this volume will become the standard account of the conflict."
