The culture of strategic thinking in Eurasia has very deep roots in history -under the influence of Chinese Indian Persian Mesopotamian Anatolian Ancient Greek Mongolian Turkish and Russian civilizations.Their common characteristic seems to be the existence of an "imperial" past. Another common pattern in all of them is that the strategic thinking in these civilizations had evolved with the motives of "ruling different cultures" and "survival of the state".In designing the book we have tried to have a balanced representation of the gigantic Eurasian geography with significant thematic frames.To this end we have included articles about the think-tanks and detailed analyses about the strategic thinking cultures of Eurasian countries like Serbia Armenia Georgia Ukraine Turkey Russia Islamic Republic of Iran Bulgaria Azerbaijan Turkestan (Central Asia: Turkmenistan Uzbekistan Kazakhstan Kyrgyzstan Tajikistan) and Belarus. As to the thematic frames topics like development of civil society cultural parameters the question of the categorization of think-tanks specialization and experts "think-tanks which are giving birth to others" strategic management procedures in the public sphere the roles played by the think-tanks at the regional and global communications networks security sector think-tanks the roles played by the think-tanks during the "colored revolutions" the influences of think-tanks operating in economics sector over the decision making mechanisms think-tanks in transition to democracy and civil society strategies" were included.
