In the course of World War I, several million people, both Russians and non-Russians, had been dispersed from the tsarist empire's western borderlands throughout its European and Siberian territories. 1 The war ended in a crescendo of ...

Ruble, director of the Kennan Institute at the Woodrow Wilson International Centre for Scholars, and John J. Czaplicka, an art and cultural historian at Harvard University, addresses the relationship between urban histories, both as written texts and as inscribed in the built environment, and the construction of civic identities.

The unexpected appearance of US, British, Turkish and other ISAF (International Security and Assistance Forces) in a country whose extremist theocracy has attempted to disseminate its fundamentalist interpretation of Islam to the neighboring regions drastically altered the status quo in the latest chapter in the 'Great Game' struggle for the soul of Central Asia and the Caucasus. 1 This latest version of a centuries-old conflict for influence in Central Eurasia has pitted Saudi-style Wahhabi fundamentalists against indigenous secularists/Sufi-mystics in a transcontinental battle costing tens of thousands of lives. While largely overlooked outside of this region, this bloody struggle has surged across Eurasia, from the Pamir Mountains of Tajikistan and the Kashmir Vale in the Himalayas, to the mountain villages of the secessionist statelet of Chechnya and the war scorched plains of Kosovo.
