Abstract

The term “Eurasia” has had different geopolitical meanings in world history. The concept of Eurasia and Eurasian integration should be adapted to the new geopolitical realities. Based on the Russian, Western, Chinese and other literature, the historical transition from Minor to Greater Eurasia is analyzed. It is argued that the concept of Greater Eurasia corresponds to the processes taking place in today’s world. In general, Greater Eurasia is a broad and open concept that includes the entire Eurasian continental space: China, the European Union, India, Pakistan, South Korea, Iran, ASEAN and post-Soviet territories. The changes in the concept of “Eurasia” calls for investigation of the essence of Eurasian integration. In this study it is divided into three levels: Eurasian Minor integration, general Eurasian integration, and a large Eurasian community of common destiny. The three models can replace the ambiguous interpretation of the original concept of Eurasian integration.
