Monday, April 12th, 2010 Roundtable: Regime, Opposition, and Violence in Kyrgyzstan

DateTimeLocation

Description

Kyrgyzstan has seen more than its fair share of turbulence in the recent past. In early April 2010, repression and violence, once again,
ushered in something of a regime change, with the Bakiev government apparently falling. This time, will regime change result in substantive political change in the country? In this roundtable, we interpret recent events in light of Kyrgyzstan’s longer political history, broader political trends evident across the Central Asian region, and theories of political change and social mobilization.
