Dagestan – History, Culture, Identity provides an up-to-date and
comprehensive overview of Dagestan, a strategically important
republic of the Russian Federation which borders Chechnya, Georgia
and Azerbaijan, and its people. It outlines Dagestan’s rich and
complicated history, from 5th c ACE to post USSR, as seen from the
viewpoint of the Dagestani people. Chapters feature the new age of
social media, urban weddings, modern and traditional medicine,
innovative food cultivation, the little-known history of Mountain
Jews during the Soviet period, flourishing heroes of sport and
finance, emerging opportunities in ethno-tourism and a recent
Dagestani music revival. In doing so, the authors examine the large
number of different ethnic groups in Dagestan, their languages and
traditions, and assess how the people of Dagestan are coping and
thriving despite the changes brought about by globalisation, new
technology and the modern world: through which swirls an increasing
sense of identity in an indigenous multi-ethnic society.
