Federalism, Integration and Multilevel Governance in
Eurasia. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Feb 2009, Pages: 208
The collapse of the Soviet Union initiated a set of
integration and disintegration processes between
and within the new independent states of Eurasia.
Thus it created a perfect playground for
comparing and studying the co-evolution of different
forms of interaction between governments.
The aim of this book is to analyze different
projects of multi-level governance created after the
dissolution of the hierarchical Soviet system,
including decentralization in individual post-Soviet
countries and development of post-Soviet regionalism
and regional integration in a unified
framework, combining elements of international
political economy and economics of endogenous
decentralization. The book also looks at the third
form of integration, which has been virtually
ignored by the literature so far: the vivid
regionalization based on investments of Russian and
Kazakhstan multinationals in the post-Soviet
countries. It, finally, shows that the development of
multi-level governance had a profound impact on both
success of reforms in the former Soviet
Union and specifics of economic policy pursued by
the main actors in the region.
