Content:
"The Routledge Handbook of the Caucasus offers an integrated, multidisciplinary overview of the historical, ethno-linguistic, cultural, socio-economic and political complexities of the Caucasus. Covering both the North and South Caucasus, the book gathers together leading Western, Caucasian and Russian scholars of the region from different disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. Following a thorough introduction by the Editors, the handbook is divided into six parts which combine thematic and chronological principles: Place, Peoples and Culture, Political History, The Contemporary Caucasus: Politics, Economics and Societies, Conflict and Political Violence, The Caucasus in the Wider World, Societal and Cultural Dynamics. This handbook will be an essential reference work for scholars interested in Russian and Eastern European Studies, Eurasian history and politics and Religious and Islamic Studies"--
