The peaceful end of the Cold War brought about an amazing transformation of international politics, and at the heart of the change was a struggle over new and old ideas, contends Jeffrey Checkel in this absorbing book. He explores political change in the late Soviet period and in post-Soviet Russia and offers fascinating theoretical insights into the effect of ideas on state behavior.
