On the morning after the Soviet Union’s collapse, millions of ethnic Russians living on the fringes of the former Russian Republic suddenly awakened to find themselves in foreign countries—newly independent non-Russian successor states that most Russians now refer to as the "near abroad."
A country that is at risk for, in the midst of or recovering from conflict has needs that no one expert or organization can provide. Often, humanitarian organizations work to address basic human needs for food, shelter and medicine; military or international organizations may have armed forces providing security; and governance experts may be helping local officials establish or improve legal frameworks and government agencies.
No two countries or situations are the same, but experts have identified many issues that emerge in nearly every conflict or post-conflict setting. The list of issue areas aims to aid researchers and practitioners by grouping USIP events, publications and resources by topic.
