Post-Cold War historiography of modern Central Asia has been
characterized by a focus on cultural history. Most of this
scholarship rests on a set of assumptions about traditional
institutions and social practices which merely reflect the bias of
Soviet or even Tsarist-era historiography. 'Explorations in the
Social History of Modern Central Asia addresses the need for a
remedy to this state of affairs and thus offers new insights on a
number of subjects relating to the social history of the region. It
includes essays dealing with property relations, resource
management, forms of local administration, the constitution of new
social groups, the construction of identity categories, and an
enquiry into the landscape of Islamic practices among the nomads.
