Chapter 4 concentrated primarily on the dynamics of regionalism in the FSU. However, as we stated in the introduction, another aspect of regionalism, which does not necessarily coincide with the development of formal intergovernmental arrangements, is regionalization based on the interaction of (primarily economic) actors at the micro level. There is very little research on this topic, partly because regionalization is much more difficult to grasp empirically: unlike regionalism, which is ultimately characterized by a limited number of international agreements and organizations, regionalization develops through multiple channels and is based on interaction of numerous agents. Nevertheless, as we explain in what follows, regionalization seems to be much more successful than regionalism in the FSU.
