Produktbeschreibung
This edited volume brings together a series of papers on various facets of the three Baltic countries, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania which have not attracted much intellectual attention outside Europe, especially in South Asia. The countries regained independence in 1991 following the disintegration of the Soviet Union. They sought to secure themselves by joining the EU, NATO and the Eurozone. They are robust democracies registering steady economic growth with improved living standards and are leading hubs in the field of Information Technology. However, for these small states bordering Russia the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war brings existential fears. This volume analyses how these states with substantial number of Russian minorities are recalibrating their policies in this changing geopolitical landscape of an assertive and aggressive Russia. It provides an in-depth understanding of the Baltic countries focusing on their security concerns, regional cooperation, gender and minority issues and bi-lateral relations with emerging powers China and India.

The volume would be of immense value to scholars of International Relations, academics, journalists, researchers and policy makers.
