Russian Central Asia in the Works of Nikolai Karazin, 1842-1908: Ambivalent Triumph by Elena Andreeva
English | EPUB | 2021 | 374 Pages | ISBN : 3030363376 | 49.2 MB
"The manuscript provides a deep reading of Nikolai Karazin's works and his relationship with Central Asia. Certainly, Elena Andreeva shows how Karazin's prolific creations have much to tell us about Russian imperialism, colonial and local society as well as Russians' self-identity as colonizers and Europeans. The work offers an original contribution to the scholarship on Russian imperial history and that of Central Asia, and Russian literary history also. Karazin's importance-at the time and now-is appropriately highlighted."

Conflicting Identities: Travails of Regionalism in Asia by Rabindra Sen, Anindya Jyoti Majumdar
English | Jun 25, 2019 | ISBN: 0367354764 | 272 pages | PDF | 3 MB
In the era of globalization, regionalism aims at a practical compromise between global governance and national aspirations. Attempts have been made by states, in varying degrees, to advance cooperation towards mutual benefit in different parts of the world. However, the very process of regional cooperation in a defined geographical area adopts unique ways and special characters to accommodate the particularities of the region and does not lead to similar consequences when compared with the processes in motion in other areas. This volume is the culmination of the brainstorming exercise of a National Seminar on 'Asian Regionalism in the Twenty First Century' at the Department of International Relations, Jadavpur University, Kolkata. The task is to fulfil two main objectives: to join the debate on the efficacy of regionalism today and make a meaningful contribution to an understanding of the subject; and also to suggest ways of tiding over the problems faced by the countries in various regions or sub-regions of the Asian continent in their attempts to advance towards the goal of regional cooperation and integration.

Sufism in Central Asia: New Perspectives on Sufi Traditions, 15th-21st Centuries By Devin A. Deweese; Jo-Ann Gross
2018 | 340 Pages | ISBN: 900436787X | PDF | 6 MB
Sufism in Central Asia: New Perspectives on Sufi Traditions, 15th-21st Centuriesbrings together ten original studies on historical aspects of Sufism in this region. A central question, of ongoing significance, underlies each contribution: what is the relationship between Sufism as it was manifested in this region prior to the Russian conquest and the Soviet era, on the one hand, and the features of Islamic religious life in the region during the Tsarist, Soviet, and post-Soviet eras on the other? The authors address multiple aspects of Central Asian religious life rooted in Sufism, examining interpretative strategies, realignments in Sufi communities and sources from the Russian to the post-Soviet period, and social, political and economic perspectives on Sufi communities.Contributors include: Shahzad Bashir, Devin DeWeese, Allen Frank, Jo-Ann Gross, Kawahara Yayoi, Robert McChesney, Ashirbek Muminov, Maria Subtelny, Eren Tasar, and Waleed Ziad.
