| Summary / Abstract (Note) | THIS ARTICLE is inspired by the current impasse over Georgia and South Ossetia, but it does explore broader issues. Georgia is merely the geographical location where the wider tension between major international actors is being played out. It might appear that I am denying Georgia its own agency in this crisis. This is an unintended consequence of my approach. I think it is quite plain that Georgia either fell into a trap devised by Moscow, or acted with gross stupidity to precipitate a Russian response. |
