Post-Cold War historiography of modern Central Asia has been characterized by a focus on cultural history. Most of this scholarship rests on a set of assumptions about traditional institutions and social practices which merely reflect the bias of Soviet or even Tsarist-era historiography. 'Explorations in the Social History of Modern Central Asia addresses the need for a remedy to this state of affairs and thus offers new insights on a number of subjects relating to the social history of the region. It includes essays dealing with property relations, resource management, forms of local administration, the constitution of new social groups, the construction of identity categories, and an enquiry into the landscape of Islamic practices among the nomads.
Paolo Sartori, Ph.D. (2006), is Research Fellow at the Institute of Iranian Studies in Vienna. From 2007-2011 he was VolkswagenStiftung Fellow at the Institute of Oriental Studies in Halle/Saale He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient (Brill).
