| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The paper discusses the “struggle for Soviet legacy’ as a key concept for
understanding relations in Central Asia. This struggle is a path of dependent
development, in which the resources and values created in Soviet times
determine interstate relations in the 21st century. The authors argue that in
Central Asia this legacy rests mostly on the mega industries created during
the Soviet era, and national resources and practices of their distribution.
The paper concludes that in fact the struggle for Soviet legacy means
confrontation over the contours of new geoeconomics in Asia. |
