Distribution letter laid in. . From an on-line posting: "One of the world's enduring regional conflicts is in Nagorno-Karabakh. This war pits local Armenians and their cousins from Armenia against Azerbaidzhan and has enmeshed Russia, Turkey and the Western allies (France, Great Britain, and the United States) in a complex series of regional relationships. The international stakes of this war involve the control over exploration for natural gas and oil and the transhipment of these commodities from Azerbaidzhan to the West. Energy resources represent Azerbaidzhan's primary means of economic modernization and are therefore vital to its economic and political freedom. Dr. Stephen J. Blank has served as the Strategic Studies Institute s expert on the Soviet bloc and the post-Soviet world since 1989. Dr. Blank has written many articles and conference papers on. Dr. Blank s current research deals with proliferation and the revolution in military affairs, and energy and security in Eurasia." Condition: Very good. No dust jacket.
