Prospects and Development Trends in Central Asia. 330 $aThis handbook-style edited volume discusses historical, but predominantly current political, economic, and societal trends in Central Asia comprising Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. The five countries exhibit many cultural and historical commonalities and face similar internal and external challenges. Despite different transformation paths and frequent intra-regional tensions, a common regional identity has emerged in the countries since gaining their independence in 1991. Besides covering their political systems, a variety of topics such as human rights, media, terrorism, and civil society are addressed. As well, bilateral relations with seven external actors are examined. Lastly, the authors explore the opportunities and limitations of institutionalized regional cooperation in various fields of action. 410 0$aContributions to Political Science,$x2198-7297 606 $aAsia$xPolitics and government 606 $aComparative government 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aEconomics 606 $aAsian Politics 606 $aComparative Politics 606 $aGovernance and Government 606 $aEuropean Politics 606 $aComparative Public Policy 606 $aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems 615 0$aAsia$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aComparative government. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 14$aAsian Politics. 615 24$aComparative Politics. 615 24$aGovernance and Government. 615 24$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aComparative Public Policy. 615 24$aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems. 676 $a303.409584 702 $aLempp$b Jakob 702 $aMayer$b Sebastian 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910887808303321 996 $aCentral Asia in a Multipolar World$94254714 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02794oam 2200697I 450 001 9910969233003321 005 20251116180837.0 010 $a1-136-29240-3 010 $a0-203-11477-9 010 $a1-299-46917-5 010 $a1-136-29241-1 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203114773 035 $a(CKB)2550000001019551 035 $a(EBL)1170307 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000860589 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12306070 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000860589 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10914072 035 $a(PQKB)11285022 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1170307 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1170307 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10687197 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL478167 035 $a(OCoLC)841914927 035 $a(OCoLC)840416125 035 $a(OCoLC)796751958 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB143632 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000001019551 100 $a20180706d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aOutdoor adventure and social theory /$fedited by Elizabeth C.J.
