The Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region is China's largest province,
shares borders with Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan,
Afghanistan, Pakistan, Russia and Mongolia, and possesses a variety
of natural resources, including oil. The tensions between ethnic
Muslim Uyghurs and the growing number of Han Chinese in Xinjiang
have recently increased, occasionally breaking out into violence.
At the same time as being a potential troublespot for China, the
province is of increasing strategic significance as China's gateway
to Central Asia whose natural resources are of increasing
importance to China. This book focuses in particular on what life
is like in Xinjiang for the diverse population that lives there. It
offers important insights into the social, economic and political
terrains of Xinjiang, concentrating especially on how current
trends in Xinjiang are likely to develop in the future. In doing so
it provides a broader understanding of the region and its peoples.
