CRISIS MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES IN KALININGRAD
Post-Soviet Politics
Series Editor: Neil Robinson, University of Limerick, Ireland
The last decade has seen rapid and fundamental change in the countries of the former Soviet Union. Although there has been considerable academic comment on these changes over the years, detailed empirical and theoretical research on the transformation of the post-Soviet space is only just beginning to appear as new paradigms are developed to explain change.
Post-Soviet Politics is a series focusing on the politics of change in the states of the former USSR. The series publishes original work that blends theoretical development with empirical research on post-Soviet politics. The series includes work that progresses comparative analysis of post-Soviet politics, as well as case study research on political change in individual post-Soviet states. The series features original research monographs, thematically strong edited collections and specialized texts.
Uniquely, this series brings together the complete spectrum of work on post-Soviet politics, providing a voice for academics world wide.
