The Muslim states that have come into being from the ruins of the
Soviet Union, and the Muslim areas of Russia, are striving to carve
out a future for themselves in the face of new realities. In
addition to international constraints, they find themselves caught
between two complex legacies: on the one hand, that of Russian and
Soviet periods--colonialism, russification, de-islamicization,
centralization and communism; on the other, that of the period
prior to the Russian conquest--localism, tribalism and Islam.
The interaction and contradictions within each category, and
between them, form the essence of the struggle to formulate new
identities. The problems this book describes reflect these legacies
in a wide range of fields. They indicate the anomalies that were
created by the inconsistencies in Soviet imperialism vis-a-vis its
Muslim subject nations, and the injustice and distortions resulting
from policies which emanated from a remote and insensitive center.
