Thinking About Empire (1997)
Motyl, Alexander J.
Common sense tells us that empires rise and fall. We know that the Roman, Habsburg, Ottoman, and Romanov realms were called empires, and we know — from history or, more precisely, from historians — that they had temporally identifiable beginnings and ends. Not surprisingly, we conclude that the history of entities called empires must hold the explanatory key to the rise and fall of empires.

Beissinger, Mark R.
How does the collapse of the Soviet Union alter or confirm existing theories about empires?
