Description
Based on the case of Kyrgyzstan, while going well beyond it to elaborate a theory of the developing state that comprehends corruption as not merely criminal, but a type of market based on highly rational decisions made by the powerful individuals within, or connected to, the state.

Media Reviews
A superb study that fundamentally challenges our perception of the post-Soviet Central Asian state. Engvall's thesis is the most novel and convincing account of post-Soviet Kyrgyz state formation of the past decade.
