See all formats and editions

State building processes in the Caucasus are influenced by the culture of the Caucasus, and previous experiences with state building after World War I. The conflicts which erupted at the time have influenced territorial claims. The role of foreign powers as Russia, the United States, Turkey, Germany is considerable in the region. Divide and rule policy of Joseph Stalin is another factor which describes existing animosities between peoples in the Caucasus. Since 1989 a transition process, or state building process, has started in the North and the South Caucasus. This book gives an in-depth analysis of the backgrounds of the conflicts, including activities by IGO's and NGOs, and the developments in international law with regard to state building practice.

great design, not so good referencing

Verified Purchase

This book contains solid information about the legal background of the conflict in the South Caucasus and issues surrounding such principles like territorial integrity and self-determination. However, the treatment of historical references is very superficial, and certain chapters draw heavily on one-sided information.
