Complexity and Community in International Relations offers a unique perspective on resilience-nurturing in Central Eurasia, spanning Belarus and Ukraine in the west, South Caucasus in the south, and Tajikistan in the east. Steeped in centuries-long traditions, social memory, and culture, this vast geography suffers from rampaging poverty, climate emergency, democratic struggles, and conflict, with global consequences for the planet.
In this volume, Korosteleva explores how Central Eurasia avidly showcases a remarkable and different type of resilience, being deeply ideational, spiritual, and always communal. She argues that the resilient subject there is never alone, unable to cope. Instead, it is always tightly woven into the community of relations, through social memory and imaginaries of the good life, support infrastructures, and affective relations.
The author demonstrates how this resilient subject, when faced with adversity or war, becomes powerfully agential, in not only learning to cope, but to transform in response to change, and to engage proactively in designing their better alternative futures. Resilience, she states, will come to encapsulate an almost revolutionary process of community's worlding into a universe of more-than-human complex relations, attuned to the precarious conditions of the Anthropocene and, more crucially, able to act on them, collectively.

Store description
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
