In Japan, one of the country’s leading universities just published a new book on Transdniestria under the auspices of the Slavic Research Center’s program of Slavic Eurasian Studies.

Weighing in at nearly 250 pages, the book deals with Transdniestria in the context of Black Sea macroregional policy and covers Transdniestria’s history as well as the current positions of mediators and parties to the conflict.

Peer-reviewed and free of the one-sided propaganda of most English- and Romanian sources, it is a valuable research tool for serious scholars of the real situation on the ground. It is written in Russian and the entire contents can be accessed online in PDF format.
