Abstract

This volume takes a systematic look at the position of women in the post-Soviet states of the former USSR. The first focuses on the economy, society and polity of the Russian Federation; the second gives specialists' insights into social, political, economic and military developments in the other republics of the former Soviet Union. The book pays special attention to women's own perceptions of their lives. How do factory workers, street vendors and rural workers view their jobs? How do the women who served in Afghanistan, migrants, politicians, political activists, soldiers' mothers and feminists portray their worlds. What strategies of coping have women devised to deal with no electricity in Armenia, with unwelcome sexual advances from fathers-in-law and with violence from partners in Russia? Why did women in Georgia travel on a peace train? How has war affected lives in the Caucasus and in Central Asia? This book explores strategies of coping and forms of adaptation, noting that women are agents, as well as victims.

Abstract

How, and why, did human trafficking out of Russia escalate at the beginning of the twenty-first century? Why did some labour migrants from Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan find happy work situations in Russia whereas others became trapped in forced labour? This book focuses on human trafficking out of the Russian Federation since the collapse of the Soviet state and on labour migration into it from Central Asia, and on some internal movement. It looks at the socio-economic reasons behind labour flows and examines key social, political, legislative and policy responses. Discussion includes how the Russian press covers these topics and what politicians, experts and the public think about them. Based on interviews, polls and focus groups in Russia, this book is rich in original research which highlights different Russian perspectives on exploitation in unfree labour. It gives examples of entrapment in prostitution, construction work, on farms, and in begging rings.

Abstract

This new volume gives a balanced critical analysis of the Bush Doctrine and its profound effect on global politics and international security. 'The Bush Doctrine and the War on Terrorism' is a collection of fifteen analyses of the global consequences of, and responses to, US foreign policy under George W. Bush. Offering competing interpretations of the origins and effects of Bush's policies, this book provides a detailed examination of the post-September 11 world and America's contested role and influence therein. Examining the key features of the Bush Doctrine; American primacy; preventive war; the war on terrorism and democracy promotion - and their practical application in Afghanistan, Iraq, and the broader Middle East, the chapters provide a comprehensive and timely assessment of Bush's proclaimed commitment to 'end tyranny' worldwide. Eight chapters written by regional specialists consider the particular factors driving divergent responses to Bush's leadership and a further five chapters analyze the consequences of the Bush Doctrine for global security, the global economy, the UN, international law and multilateralism. Providing a balanced and dispassionate assessment of continuity and change in American foreign policy, national/regional responses to it, and the impact of US foreign policy on a set of 'big picture' discrete issues, this book will be essential reading for scholars and researchers of international relations and contemporary history.
