It has undermined European security, raised questions about NATO's future, and put an end to one of the most ambitious projects of U.S. foreign policy?building a partnership with Russia. It also threatens to undermine U.S. diplomatic efforts on issues ranging from terrorism to nuclear proliferation. And in the absence of direct negotiations, each side is betting that political and economic pressure will force the other to blink first. Caught in this dangerous game of chicken, the West cannot afford to lose sight of the importance of stable relations with Russia.This book puts the conflict in historical perspective by examining the evolution of the crisis and assessing its implications both for the Crimean peninsula and for Russia's relations with the West more generally. Experts in the international relations of post-Soviet states, political scientists Rajan Menon and Eugene Rumer clearly show what is at stake in Ukraine, explaining the key economic, political, and security challenges and prospects for overcoming them. They also discuss historical precedents, sketch likely outcomes, and propose policies for safeguarding U.S.-Russia relations in the future. In doing so, they provide a comprehensive and accessible study of a conflict whose consequences will be felt for many years to come. 410 0$aBoston review book. 606 $aUkraine$xHistory$y1991-7 606 $aRussia (Federation)$xForeign relations$zUkraine 606 $aRussia (Federation)$xHistory$y1991- 606 $aHistorie$2FBC 606 $aSikkerhedspolitik$2FBC 606 $aNATO$2FBC 608 $aUkraine$xForeign relations$zRussia (Federation) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aUkraine$xHistory 615 7$aRussia (Federation)$xForeign relations 615 7$aRussia (Federation)$xHistory 615 7$aHistorie 615 7$aSikkerhedspolitik 615 7$aNATO 686 $a327.5$2z 701 $aMenon$b Rajan$0675401 701 $aRumer$b Eugene$0697989 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460552103321 996 $aConflict in Ukraine$92582402 997 $aUNINA
