After the collapse of the Soviet Union the Caucasus was wracked by ethnic and separatist violence as the peoples of the region struggled for self-determination. This book asks why nationalism emerged as a dominant political current, and why, of the many nationalist movements that emerged, some led to violence while others did not.
