Someone mentioned this in class yesterday, and I thought it was a nice phrase. Low and behold, today the Russians are saber rattling again. This time over a tiny province that until 1998 was largely unheard of outside of the Balkans. Check out a brief article on the situation here. Kosovo might be a fun state to follow this semester, seeing as they are expected to declare independence from Serbia and perhaps be invaded before May. This could be the EU's first official war if the Russians jump in. History unfolding before our eyes -- now we just have to figure out how to analyze it spatially!
Cheers,
Ian
