Handbook of Research on War Policies, Strategies, and Cyber Wars
In the new world order, conflicts between countries are increasing. Fluctuations in the economy and imbalances in the distribution of scarce resources to developing countries can result in wars.

Islam in Central Asia and the Caucasus Since the Fall of the Soviet Union
With the end of the Soviet Union in 1991, a major turning point in all former Soviet republics, Central Asian and Caucasian countries began to reflect on their history and identities. As a consequence of their opening up to the global exchange of ideas, various strains of Islam and trends in Islamic thought have nourished the Islamic revival that had already started in the context of glasnost and perestroika--from Turkey, Iran, the Arabian Peninsula, and from the Indian subcontinent; the four regions with strong ties to Central Asian and Caucasian Islam in the years before Soviet occupation. Bayram Balci seeks to analyse how these new Islamic influences have reached local societies and how they have interacted with pre-existing religious belief and practice. Combining exceptional erudition with rare first-hand research, Balci's book provides a sophisticated account of both the internal dynamics and external influences in the evolution of Islam in the region.

De Facto States in Eurasia
This book explores the phenomenon of de facto states in Eurasia: states such as Abkhazia, Nagorno-Karabakh, and the Transnistrian Moldovan Republic. It examines how they are formed, what sustains them, and how their differing development trajectories have unfolded. It argues that most of these de facto states have been formed with either direct or indirect support from Russia, but they all have their own internal logic and are not simply puppets in the hands of a powerful patron. The book provides detailed case studies and draws out general patterns, and compares present-day de facto states with de facto states which existed in the past.

The Russia-Ukraine War and Its Consequences on the Geopolitics of the World
Geopolitics is a concept that shapes shifts following the socio-political and economic changes made within or in neighboring states. Usually, the popularity in geopolitics is motivated by victory in war, which binds the nation, revives the national culture, and promotes the spiritual and territorial expansion into neighboring states. However, the defeat in war can be motivating as well, as the defeat catalyzes the creation and dissemination of geo-political theories.
