Sufism in Central Asia: New Perspectives on Sufi Traditions,
15th-21st Centuries brings together ten original studies on
historical aspects of Sufism in this region. A central question, of
ongoing significance, underlies each contribution: what is the
relationship between Sufism as it was manifested in this region
prior to the Russian conquest and the Soviet era, on the one hand,
and the features of Islamic religious life in the region during the
Tsarist, Soviet, and post-Soviet eras on the other? The authors
address multiple aspects of Central Asian religious life rooted in
Sufism, examining interpretative strategies, realignments in Sufi
communities and sources from the Russian to the post-Soviet period,
and social, political and economic perspectives on Sufi
communities. Contributors include: Shahzad Bashir, Devin DeWeese,
Allen Frank, Jo-Ann Gross, Kawahara Yayoi, Robert McChesney,
Ashirbek Muminov, Maria Subtelny, Eren Tasar, and Waleed Ziad.
