Abstract

This extensively revised paperback edition explores at first-hand the extraordinary defeat of the Russian army in Chechnya and provides essential reading for all those concerned with current developments in the Caucasus. It puts one of the most savage wars of recent years into the context of the predominantly Moslem North Caucasus region. Fierce resistance meant that Russia took almost three centuries to conquer this mountainous area. And it remains the most turbulent and strategic part of the Russian Federation - an ethnic and geopolitical tinderbox criss-crossed by billion-dollar oil pipelin

Abstract

This book offers the first analysis of the brutalisation paradigm in counter-insurgency warfare. Minimising the use of force and winning over the population's opinion is said to be the cornerstone of success in modern counterinsurgency (COIN). Yet, this tells only one side of the story. Drawing upon primary data collected during interviews with eyewitnesses of the Second Russian-Chechen War, as well as from secondary sources, this book is the first to offer a detailed analysis of the long-neglected logic underpinning brutalisation-centred COIN campaigns. It offers a comprehensive systematisation of the brutalisation paradigm and challenges the widespread assumption of brutalisation as an underperforming paradigm of COIN warfare. It shows that, although appalling, brutalisation-centred measures can deliver success. The book also outlines a stigmatised yet widely deployed set of COIN measures and provides critical insights into how Western military blueprints can be improved without compromising important moral and ethical requirements.
