Eurasian Corridors of Interconnection: From the South China to the Caspian Sea (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780415857710)

This volume aims to rethink the regional concept of "Eurasia" as a scale of analysis and as a geographical place, examining dynamic geopolitical links reconfiguring Eurasian spaces from the western edge of Europe through the eastern edge of Asia. While current debates presume that Eurasia is merely a catch-all term for bare ambition and geostrategic wrangling, seeing the Eurasian region from the perspective of the most powerful players, this volume presents a usefully broad vision of blurred borders - from the eastern edges of the Sino-Vietnamese zone through the Himalayan corridor and the Central Asian "near abroad" distinguished more by their syncretism than antagonism.
