Russia and Central Asia provides an overview of the relationship
between two dynamic regions, highlighting the ways in which Russia
and Central Asia have influenced and been influenced by Europe,
Asia, and the Middle East. This readable synthesis, covering early
coexistence in the seventeenth century to the present day, seeks to
encourage new ways of thinking about how the modern world
developed. Shoshana Keller focuses on the five major "Stans":
Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan.
Cultural and social history are interwoven with the military
narrative to provide a sense of the people, their religion, and
their practices - all of which were severely tested under Stalin.
The text includes a glossary as well as images and maps that help
to highlight 500 years of changes, bringing Central Asia into the
general narrative of Russian and world history and introducing a
fresh perspective on colonialism and modernity.
