CHALLENGING HEGEMONY: LABOR, CAPITAL, AND DEMOCRACY IN UKRAINE AND KAZAKHSTAN BY LEO B. SIMMONS ABSTRACT This is a comparative study designed to induce conclusions generated from an analysis of the labor-capital relationship now forming in Ukraine and Kazakhstan. Both nations face severe economic crisis and are composed of very weak social actors. The situation favors a turn toward authoritarian regimes. This study takes as its primary focus the potential for labor to direct national development priorities. The context of this paper is transformation in the social relations of production. Workers in the post-Soviet world are challenged by a global neoliberal restructuring accelerated by the end of the Cold War. Nonetheless, workers are mounting resistance, somewhat unevenly, depending on their social and structural position. It will be found that workers in Ukraine are in a advantageous position to affect the direction of market reform. Kazakh workers, however, are stratified by ethnic factors that diminishmobilization potential to influence government policy. ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

INTRODUCTION: COMPARATIVE POLITICAL ECONOMY ^AND POST-SOVIET TRANSITION The happiness of mankind is a great goal, and if, in accordance -witfcrMarx, it is near and fuUyattainabie, then it’s understandable why people went into this ‘last battle’ and sacrificed their lives. —Only after a century has it become patently clear that the last verge to the Marxist final battle is not in sight, and not tens, but -tens-ofmriffions of human lives have been ruined, but, alas, the radiant dream of mankind hasn’t come the least bit closer, but, on - -the-contrary, in countries where Marxism has been victorious, it -isn’t the heavenly orders that have triumphed by unym eans.1 The euphoria that swept Eastern Europe and Eurasia almost ten —years-ago is~now over. Paths todfae-new order have-been cast with some nations reproducing nearly identical social structures, others clearly forging —more liberal societies. The transition from state socialism to-advanced capitalism entails that forces from the past and present construct new , —realities and relationships within and among civic associations, government, and the economy. The labor-capital relationship that is developing in —Kazakhstan and Ukraine indicates a concrete problem for democratization. Both countries face severe economic crisis and are composed of very weak —soetahactors. Unless-a more equitable process of distribution and representation develops, these states will be relegated to autocratic regime . —structures well into the future. 1Anatoly Gladilin, Moscow Racetrack (Ann Arbor, MI: Ardis Publishers, 1990) 29. 1 Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

The ‘Stans’ at 20 (WP) Martha Brill Olcott * Introduction In late December the five Central Asian countries enter their third decade of independence, effectively achieved when Mikhail Gorbachev resigned as President of the USSR and turned the Kremlin over to Boris Yeltsin as President of the Russian Federation. 1 While these countries began to declare their independence as early as 31 August 1991, beginning with the Kyrgyz Republic and ending with Kazakhstan on 16 December, 2 there was not the same popular and elite pressure for independence in the Central Asian region that was found in the south Caucasus, not to mention in the Baltic region. The leaders of the Central Asian republics all wanted more economic, cultural and political autonomy, but they were also very conservative and feared that independence might bring ethnic or political unrest to their republics. 3 These fears were borne out in Tajikistan, but everywhere else the transition to independence went smoothly. Now, 20 years later, these five republics have developed into very distinct countries. The ‘face’ of each country is different.

    THE JAMES A.

BAKER III INSTITUTE FOR PUBLIC POLICY RICE UNIVERSITY – APRIL 1998 CENTRAL ASIA: CONFRONTING INDEPENDENCE Introduction After the euphoria of gaining independence settles down, the elites of each new sovereign country inevitably stumble upon the challenges of building a viable state. The inexperienced governments soon venture into unfamiliar territory when they have to formulate foreign policy or when they try to forge beneficial economic ties with foreign investors. What often proves especially difficult is the process of redefining the new country's relationship with its old colonial ruler or federation partners. In addition to these often-encountered hurdles, the newly independent states of Central Asia-- Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan-- have faced a host of particular challenges. Some of these emanate from the Soviet legacy, others--from the ethnic and social fabric of each individual polity. Yet another group stems from the peculiarities of intra- regional dynamics. Finally, the fledgling states have been struggling to step out of their traditional isolation and build relations with states outside of their neighborhood. This paper seeks to offer an overview of all the challenges that the Central Asian countries have confronted in the process of consolidating their sovereignty. The Soviet Legacy and the Ensuing Internal Challenges What best distinguishes the birth of the Central Asian states from that of any other sovereign country is the incredible weakness of pro-independence movements throughout the region.

Miner. pages cm. — (Baker series in peace and conflict studies) Summary: “Since the end of the Cold War, a new dynamic has arisen within the international system, one that does not conform to established notions of the state’s monopoly on war. In this changing environment, the global community must decide how to respond to the challenges posed to the state by military threats, political and economic decline, and social fragmentation. This insightful work considers the phenomenon of state failure and asks how the international community might better detect signs of state decay at an early stage and devise legally and politically legitimate responses. This collection of essays brings military and social historians into conversation with political and social scientists and former military officers. In case studies from the former Yugoslavia, Somalia, Iraq, and Colombia, the distinguished contributors argue that early intervention to stabilize social, economic, and political systems offers the greatest promise, whereas military intervention at a later stage is both costlier and less likely to succeed”— Provided by publisher.

  • Central Asia: Living in Afghanistan's Shadow
    NORWEGIAN PEACEBUILDING CENTRE No. 1 November 2009 Noref Policy Brief No 1 2009 Central Asia: Living in Afghanistan’s shadow Martha Brill Olcott Executive Summary The absence of a functional government in Afghanistan has been creating economic and security challenges for the Central Asian states since their founding in 1991. Long frustrated by the international community’s failure to end the Afghan civil war through negotiation, the 2001 September 11 attack created the expectation among these countries that the US would intervene successfully in Afghanistan, leading to an economic recovery that would advance the development of all the states in the region. While the US-led NATO operations in Afghanistan have resulted in somewhat enhanced secu- rity capacity in the Central Asian countries, most projects designed to strengthen the regional economy remain on the drawing board. In fact, the long-term security challenges faced by the Central Asian states seem to be increasing, given the current situation in Afghanistan and Martha Brill Olcott the growing instability of Pakistan. As public pressure mounts in the US and in Europe to wind down their military involvement Martha Brill Olcott is a senior associate with in Afghanistan, and to find other ways to protect the Russian and Eurasian Program at the Carn- their populations from the risks posed by egie Endowment. She specializes in the prob- al-Qaeda, Central Asian elites are left pondering lems of transitions in Central Asia and the Cau- how best to protect their own populations, in casus. She has followed interethnic relations in view of the limited regional, multilateral or Russia and the states of the former Soviet Un- bilateral assistance on offer.

  • The Central Asian States: an Overview of Five Years of Independence
    The Central Asian States: An Overview of Five Years of Independence MARTHA BRILL OLCOTT he emergence of five independent states, carved out of what used to be Sovi- Tet Central Asia, has changed the strategic balance in southwest Asia. What this will mean for global security in the long run is still far from clear. However, it is already possible to draw some conclusions about the immediate and short- term implications. A few things are already perfectly obvious. The new states of Central Asia are not pseudo-nations. At the same time, they have not yet managed to fully break away from Moscow’s influence. The Central Asian states have to varying degrees managed to institutionalize their independence. Their degrees of success in this regard have been influenced by a number of factors, including geographic loca- tion, the quality of leadership, the level of political stability at the time of inde- pendence, and the capacity for independent economic development. Moscow can no longer dictate developments in this part of the world. At the same time, Russia is unwilling, and some might say unable, to withdraw fully from the region. Russian leaders believe that they must continue to defend Cen- tral Asia’s borders to keep Russia itself safe. In part, this is because approximately ten million ethnic Russians still live in the region, and the Russian government is not willing to abandon those people to whatever fate may have in store. Russia is also increasingly aware of its own Muslim population and has a desire to remain on good terms with the Central Asian states to appease the Muslim, and not only the Russian, political constituency.
