CHECHNYA
AND RUSSIAN FEDERATION: ATTEMPTED NATION-BUILDING AND THE TWO RUSSO-CHECHEN
WARS (1989 - present)
The war in Chechnya is a very
complicated political occurrence. Numerous concepts and principles of the end
of the 20th century, such as territorial integrity, the right of
self-determination, diversity and security all clashed with each other on the
battlefields of this small country and in the offices of governments and
international organizations. It would hardly be an exaggeration
to say that the war in Chechnya is one of the “dirty imperialist wars” of the
post-world-war world that was “successfully” pulled into the new millennium. This article and site have been
created to help everyone who is interested in international politics to
understand some of the background to this war and to learn more about
Chechnya, its history, culture and people. |
