Regionalism, regional structures and security management in Central Asia

Article Abstract:

The security dimension of regionalism and regional structures in Central Asia and Azerbaijan are limited by Russia's influence as a regional hegemon, as well as by various constrains specific to the region and the local states. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization has created a venue to engage China in the security dialogue on Central Asia particularly over counterterrorism but has otherwise failed to tackle security challenges in Central Asian states.

Article Abstract:

An argument in two fields, security and energy policy is made and the President Putin has presided over a proactive, hare-headed and relatively effective Russian policy in Central Asia and The Caspian region to support Russia's revival. Russia lacks an overall regional strategy for Central Asia, but is seeking to mesh together geological, security, and energy policy goals.
