Description: |
The end of Soviet hegemony has led to the emergence of new Central Asia nation-states which are struggling with the conundrums of national identity. This text focuses on the dynamics among transnational forces within and beyond the region and explores the roles played by diaspora communities in Central Asia and the Caucasus. |
Synopsis: |
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, a number of linkages have been established between newly independent Central Asian states, or populations within them, and diaspora ethnic groups. This book explores the roles that diaspora communities play in the recent and ongoing emergence of national identities in Central Asia and the Caucasus. The loyalties of these communities are divided between their countries of residence and those states that serve as homeland of their particular ethno-cultural nation, and are further complicated by connections with contested transnational notions of common cultures and 'peoples'. Written by highly respected experts in the field, the book addresses issues such as nationalism, conflict, population movement, global civil society, Muslim communities in China and relations between the new nation-states and Russia. This innovative book will interest students and researchers of transnationalism and Central Asian studies. |
