Education, Inc. Summary of Chapter • Central Asia and Afghanistan are in a very precarious place. In Central Asia, the revolutionary fever has already hit Kyrgyzstan and the leaders of the other countries fear that they could be next. • Economically, the former Soviet republics of Central Asia were devastated after independence, and while all have made great economic advances since demodernization, only Kazakhstan is moving toward substantive economic development that has created jobs and wealth. • Positive trends include the recent opening of many of the economies, especially those bordering China, to international trade and to competition from Russia and other former Soviet countries, and the start of negotiations to build oil pipelines that bypass Russia.
