| Summary/Abstract |
The existing setting of the Central Asian region suggests that the region is passing through a transitional phase.
New states have yet to complete the task of nation building and evolve a policy, which strikes a balance between pluralism and national unity. The rich oil and natural gas resources of this region are attracting the foreign states and multinational companies to invest in the energ y sector and undertake construction of new pipelines needed to promote export to the international markets.
