Contributors to this volume were asked the question 'does local culture frequently explain a state's foreign policy decisions? Or, is culture just one among many factors the have varying influences on a state's foreign policy?' (editor's introduction). Draws on experiences and knowledge of and relating to countries loosely defined as being around the Caspian region. Starts with discussions of culture, identity, and perceived identity, then considers in more detail the specific cases of Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
