The book explores the evolving dynamics of European relations post-Cold War, focusing on significant events in the ex-Soviet sphere, such as EU enlargement and NATO expansion. It examines the interplay of foreign, security, and defense policies, emphasizing the roles of state and non-state actors in the Black Sea Region. Through contributions from leading experts, it offers in-depth analyses of the challenges to peace and security, highlighting the complexities and geopolitical tensions that shape the region today.

Divided States provides a nuanced understanding of some of the most important and impacting issues in EU-Russia relations, and is essential reading for anyone interested in the complex mechanisms that drive political and economic activity in Europe and the European periphery. The original and thought-provoking chapters, by experts in their fields, apply cutting-edge theoretical constructs such as hybridity theory, a hierarchical understanding of monetary relations, and an examination of asymmetric political and economic partnerships, all of which address key questions and challenges in the field of EU-Russia relations. While the specific conclusions expressed are as diverse as the issues analyzed, the findings point to a reality of regression in spite of progression in critical spheres regarding state and non-state actors, dynamics driving mutual exclusion instead of inclusion, and budding skepticism regarding nationalist values, social identities, and ideological sentiments.
