The collapse of the Soviet Union has engendered one of the most momentous and critical regional transformations of our tiomes through the formation and development of the postSoviet states. This book explores the politics of postSoviet transition and the problems which will continue to face these states well into the twentyfirst century, as they struggle towards democracy, market reform, ethnic coexistance and integration into a new geoplolitical postCold War world order.Richly illustrated with examples drawn from Russian and other postSoviet primary sources, the author focuses on three broad themes of transition. Firstly, the progression from colonialism to postcolonialism and the consquences of such changes on national identity and the redefinition of national homeland. Secondly, the movement away from totalitarian rule and the factors which both facilitate and challenge the prospects of a democratic future. Thirdly, the process of securing a successful place in the global capitalist economy.
