Imperial Russia's Muslims offers an exploration of social and
cultural change among the Muslim communities of Central Eurasia
from the late eighteenth century through to the outbreak of the
First World War. Drawing from a wealth of Russian and Turkic
sources, Mustafa Tuna surveys the roles of Islam, social networks,
state interventions, infrastructural changes and the globalization
of European modernity in transforming imperial Russia's oldest
Muslim community: the Volga-Ural Muslims. Shifting between local,
imperial and transregional frameworks, Tuna reveals how the Russian
state sought to manage Muslim communities, the ways in which both
the state and Muslim society were transformed by European
modernity, and the extent to which the long nineteenth century
either fused Russia's Muslims and the tsarist state or drew them
apart. The book raises questions about imperial governance,
diversity, minorities, and Islamic reform, and in doing so proposes
a new theoretical model for the study of imperial situations.
