Produktbeschreibung

""Muslim Communities Reemerge" provides a remarkably balanced, comprehensive, and up-to-date introduction to the intricacies and multi-layered relationship of the ex-Soviet Islamic peoples to their own history, religion, and culture as well as to their non-Muslim neighbors and fellow citizens. It forces us to rethink our own definition and understanding of contemporary nationalism and federalism, particularly as related to religion, customs, or traditional and modern values."--Marc Raeff, Bakhmeteff Professor Emeritus of Russian Studies, Columbia University
