| Summary/Abstract |
The several weeks in August-September 1918 when the Soviet regime, barely 12 months old, was hanging by a thread (which Bolshevik leaders also admitted) can be described as the most dramatic period in the history of Soviet-British relations. An open armed intervention of the Entente powers that sided with the anti-Communist forces threatened to bury the hopes of Lenin and his comrades-in-arms to retain power in expectation of a worldwide revolution. Indeed, Soviet power was liquidated practically across the entire country (with the exception of several gubernias of its European part) while riots and conspiracies in the capitals and the biggest cities and the ongoing world war were ruining the country's economy and bringing hunger and epidemics.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE FEBRUARY REVOLUTION of 1917 in Russia removed the regime of czarist autocracy from the stage; the Foreign Ministry, however, survived with minimal losses. The Provisional Government brought to power by the revolution was determined to follow the previous foreign policy course. The Foreign Ministry returned to the scene after four days of revolutionary turmoil even if the situation in the country looked more like a war than anything else which inevitably affected the ministry's functioning and the course it tried to follow. As could be expected, political power could not leave the ministry alone. Its interference in foreign policy had caused disagreements that gradually spread to the Provisional Government.

| Summary/Abstract |
China and the United States are the greatest strategic powers of the world today, where
China is rising but the United States still remains predominant. Both have their grand
strategic visions to shape and manage the world or regional political and security
architecture. South Asia, being located in a critical and important geographical area,
with players such as India, Pakistan, and others, is factored in their visions. It gives
rise to a different combination of alignments and orientations of the states of South
Asia and beyond. A kind of power game, along with its tangible manifestations, also
seems conspicuous. This paper attempts to develop a broad framework of such
developments, along with ramifications, both in place and projected, in the political
power games of the relevant actors in South Asia.
