{"product_id":"2940157458454","title":"Everyone Loses: The Ukraine Crisis and the Ruinous Contest for Post-Soviet Eurasia","description":"Disorder erupted in Ukraine in 2014, involving the overthrow of a sitting government, the Russian annexation of the Crimean peninsula, and a violent insurrection, supported by Moscow, in the east of the country.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Adelphi book argues that the crisis has yielded a ruinous outcome, in which all the parties are worse off and international security has deteriorated. This negative-sum scenario resulted from years of zero-sum behaviour on the part of Russia and the West in post-Soviet Eurasia, which the authors rigorously analyse. The rivalry was manageable in the early period after the Cold War, only to become entrenched and bitter a decade later. The upshot has been systematic losses for Russia, the West and the countries caught in between.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll the governments involved must recognise that long-standing policies aimed at achieving one-sided advantage have reached a dead end, Charap and Colton argue, and commit to finding mutually acceptable alternatives through patient negotiation.","brand":"International Institute for Strategic Studies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47112500904176,"sku":"2940157458454","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940157458454_p0.jpg?v=1764130951","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940157458454","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
