像乌克兰这样的地区多样性往往蕴含着潜在的摩擦和冲突，特别是当它涉及到领土化的种族和不同的历史经历时。对稳定和预防冲突感兴趣的政治精英必须找到适应或控制这种多样性的方法。上世纪90年代初至90年代中期，西方媒体、政策制定者和学者都警告说，在苏联解体后，克里米亚可能成为动荡的中心。然而，克里米亚没有发生大规模冲突，基辅设法将克里米亚半岛纳入新的乌克兰政体。这本书探讨了导致基本和平过渡的因素，并将局势置于预防冲突研究的更大背景下，解释了尽管种族，地区甚至国际敌意的结构性倾向，但冲突并未爆发的关键案例。
Regional diversity such as Ukraine’s often embodies potential for friction and conflict, in particular when it involves territorialized ethnicity and divergent historical experiences. Political elites interested in stability and conflict prevention must find ways either to accommodate or control this diversity. In the early to mid-1990s, the Western media, policymakers, and academics alike warned that Crimea was a potential center of unrest in the aftermath of the Soviet Union’s dissolution. However, large-scale conflict in Crimea did not materialize, and Kyiv has managed to integrate the peninsula into the new Ukrainian polity. This book explores the factors that led to the largely peaceful transition and places the situation in the larger context of conflict-prevention studies, explaining this critical case in which conflict did not erupt despite a structural predisposition to ethnic, regional, and even international enmity.
