Abstract

This chapter presents the genesis, aims, and scope of the CIS with special consideration given to the reasons for integration between the CIS countries. The main CIS institutions, their aims, and the structure thereof are also described in the chapter. The main aim of this chapter is an analysis of the mechanisms which drive the CIS. The main question is: “Why do the countries that were previously united under the USSR, and that decided in 1991 to dissolve the union, continue to search for integration opportunities?”
