In Near Abroad, the eminent political geographer Gerard Toal moves beyond the polemical rhetoric that surrounds Russia's interventions in Georgia and Ukraine to study the underlying territorial conflicts and geopolitical struggles. Central to understanding are legacies of the Soviet Union collapse: unresolved territorial issues, weak states and a conflicted geopolitical culture in Russia over the new territorial order. The West's desire to expand NATO contributed to a growing geopolitical contest in Russia'S near abroad. This found expression in a 2008 NATO proclamation that Georgia and Ukraine will become members of NATO, a 'red line' issue for Russia. The road to invasion and war in Georgia and Ukraine, thereafter, is explained in Near Abroad.
Zusatztext
Near Abroad eloquently clook under the lid of Putins aggressive and dangerously imperialist mentality.""" frames employed in Western geopolitical culture referring to the current standoff with Russia.
