The Caucasus Under Soviet Rule by Alex Marshall
The Caucasus is a strategically and economically important region in contemporary global affairs. This book argues that understanding the Soviet legacy in the region is critical to analysing both the states of the Transcaucasus and the autonomous territories of the North Caucasus. It examines the impact of Soviet rule on the Caucasus.-

"This is the best book in English on the modern history of the North Caucasus as a whole, and the only one to treat the Soviet period with depth and objectivityIn a field too often marred by shrill propaganda masquerading as scholarship, Alex Marshall has produced a work of true scholarship." - Professor Anatol Lieven, King's College London, author of Chechnya: Tombstone of Russian Power
"Given the huge complexity and breadth of its subject, it is remarkably concise and comprehensive, and will be useful for teaching as well as indispensable for researchers. His account decisively explodes the long-lived émigré myth of constant conflict and oppression in the Soviet Caucasus. Whilst Marshall never glosses over the violent episodes, he shows how these were offset by lengthy periods of pragmatic accommodation to Soviet power and co-optation of local elites, which are in many ways of greater importance in understanding the politics of the region today." - Alexander Morrison, University of Liverpool; SEER, 90, 1, January 2012
"This is an interesting book and one of the best that we have on the Soviet Caucasus to date... this book is a refreshing appraisal of the nature of Soviet power in the Caucasus over seven decades... This book is an important contribution to the history of the North Caucasus in the twentieth century." - Stephen F. Jones, Mount Holyoke College; Revolutionary Russia, 25:1
