International higher education as a soft power tool of Turkish foreign policy
Eurasia emerged as a potential sphere of political, economic and cultural influence for Türkiye in the aftermath of the Soviet disintegration, which urged the country to redesign its foreign policy around new discourses and practices. In addition to developing economic, political and cultural ties, Türkiye instrumentalised its higher education as a soft power tool with a scholarship programme named the Great Student Project (GSP). This article ai…
Covid-19 and Azerbaijan
COVID-19 has significantly impacted many countries of post-Soviet Eurasia, affecting both political and economic realms. Azerbaijan is not alone in suffering from the pandemic and paying a high price. All the problems the country inherited are being exacerbated, forcing the government to seek different modes of development and the managing of governmental affairs. The following article will examine the possible impact of COVID-19 on the political…
Azerbaijani youth in transition
This article analyzes the role of the state youth policy of Azerbaijan in supporting young people through their transition from school to work, which is one of the stages when young people can be in particularly fragile situation if not provided with necessary opportunities. The reason for studying the case of Azerbaijan is a considerable share of youth Not in Employment, Education, or Training (NEET youth) among the country’s youth community. Th…
A battle for transportation routes in the Russian neighborhood
Azerbaijan’s foreign policy towards Russia since independence
Discussions of post-Soviet countries’ policies towards Russia have been largely dominated by two mainstream neorealist approaches on states’ alignment choices – balancing and bandwagoning. While the first pattern entails allying against the primary source of threat, the second one opts for allying with the source of principal danger. By means of a case study, this article argues that the balancing-bandwagoning dichotomy is too simplistic in the c…
Post-Soviet urban renewal and its discontents
Gentrification is being increasingly discussed as a driver of urban change globally, including in the former Soviet Union. However, the translation of the gentrification phenomenon into post-Soviet cities like Baku remains poorly understood. This article explores how a particular form of state-led “gentrification by demolition” is unfolding in Baku. We assert the ongoing relevance of using the framework of gentrification to analyze the processes.…
Mosques as monuments
This article examines monumental mosques and particularly those that are built to be and function more as monuments than as places for worship. We consider the role of monumentality in religious landscapes by way of six exemplary mosques in three different world regions - Central Asia, the Arabian Peninsula, and Southeast Asia. Tracing their unique histories and the identity narratives inscribed in their built form, we stress three broader common…
Do citizens of the former Soviet Union trust state institutions and why
This study examines the trust in political institutions in Azerbaijan using the data from the survey Caucasus Barometer (CB) conducted by the Caucasus Research Resource Center (CRRC) in 2012–2013. Two hypotheses – cultural and institutional – were tested. The study partially confirms the previous findings that national culture, as well as individual socialization (macro and micro-cultural theories) are the main determinants of trust in Azerbaijan…
Urban boosterism in closed contexts
This paper presents a case study of urban boosterism in Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan – three resource-rich states around the Caspian Sea. Boosterist projects are typically justified through the injunction of, “build it and they will come.” This cliché is a staple of how urban planners and elites seek to justify development schemes that lack an obvious demand. And while the logic underpinning urban boosterism hinges on a high degree of…
