Rezensionen

"Russia, Eurasia and the new Geopolitics of Energy moves eastwards, aiming to provide an understanding of the patterns of confrontation and cooperation in Eurasia ... . the chapters have been organized well, providing new experiences and ideas. The editors should be congratulated. ... chapters will certainly challenge every scholar's thoughts about Eurasia by providing contrasting views and theories, whilst examining the challenges to all of the countries themselves." (Carol Weaver, Slavic Review, 2017)

"This volume expands the analysis to assess how Russia's conflictual relations with the West have affected the broader Eurasian region ... this is an enlightening and instructive volume which sheds much light on contemporary developments in Central Asia and in Sino- Russian relations." (R. Dannreuther, East European Review, Vol. 94 (4), October, 2016)

"This edited volume joins the debates about changing power dynamics in Central Asia and its implications for regionalsecurity and cooperation. ... the book provides quite a good geopolitically-realist lensed overview of politics in Eurasia." (Irina Kustova, Europe-Asia Studies, Vol. 68 (6), 2016)
