The author asserts that while there is considerable suspicion of U.S. designs on Central Asia, divergent interests within the SCO, among Central Asian states, and especially between Russia and China, serve to limit any coordinated anti-U.S. activity. The monograph takes a critical look at the Sino-Russian partnership and points to differences on energy and economic integration in Central Asia, despite common interests in maintaining regime security and limiting U.S. influence in the region."--P. vi-vii.Regions & Countries - EuropeHILCCHistory & ArchaeologyHILCCRussia & Former Soviet RepublicsHILCCAsia, CentralStrategic aspectsRussia (Federation)Foreign relationsAsia, CentralAsia, CentralForeign relationsRussia (Federation)ChinaForeign relationsAsia, CentralAsia, CentralForeign relationsChinaUnited StatesForeign relationsAsia, CentralAsia, CentralForeign relationsUnited StatesRegions & Countries - EuropeHistory & ArchaeologyRussia & Former Soviet Republics327.58073Wishnick Elizabeth1186285Army War College (U.S.) Strategic Studies Institute,PQKBBOOK9910694567903321Russia, China, and the United States in Central Asia : prospects for great power competition and cooperation in the shadow of the Georgian crisis3094932UNINA
