- Abstract
-
Mehdi Amineh and Henk Houweling examine the role and influence of both the United States and the European Union in the region of Central Eurasia (CEA). In this region both superpowers are confronted with eight young states which emerged following the demise of the Soviet Union. These states have fragile societies and partly contested borders. In this region the influence of other important powers, such as Russia, Iran and China, is also apparent. The CEA's abundant oil and gas resources appear to generate several clashes of interest. The authors address the various geopolitical relationships in this highly complex region as well as the energy factor.
