Abstract: | The article discusses Russian motivation in the context of the restructuring of the military industrial complex and the new political districts of the former Soviet Union. It draws on Allison (1993) to describe the new military district structure, and considers what the combination of the boundaries of these areas indicates of Russian intentions for the future development of their forces and their relationship with the West. It goes on to consider the role of the media and of western political leaders in achieving images suitable for the identification of a peace dividend, and the repercussions of the situation as regards the future security of bi-polar relationships. |
