Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Islamic Studies, grade: 92, Ben Gurion University, course: Tsars, Comrades and Prophets: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives on Islam in Russia and the Former Soviet Union, language: English, abstract: For almost a millennium Russia has interacted with Islam. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Islam has had a considerable impact on the formation of a new Russian identity. The "ideological and cultural vacuum" generated by the enormous political change hampers the creation of this identity. In the new liberty, formerly excluded and suppressed minorities strive for self-determination and recognition of their rights. The following study briefly depicts the new political situation. Further it analyzes the policies of the post-Soviet Russian Federation government and its consequences for Russian Muslims; it compares them with the policies of the Central Asian state of Uzbekistan. Using Turkey as a specific example, conclusions are drawn about the effects of this new socio-political climate on Russian Muslims.

On February 17th, 1880, members of the Russian terrorist organisation, the People's Will, waited in blizzard conditions for the result of their latest attempt to assassinate the tsar. Among them, a man destined to live in two worlds as few have ever done. Lev Tikhomirov (1852-1923) served as chief publicist for the group, yet when his comrades eventually succeeded in their murderous task, his life was to take a most unexpected turn. In exile in France, Tikhomirov underwent a 'road to Damascus' conversion. He rediscovered his faith and with it, a devotion to his fatherland and the dynasty he had once so fervently wished to inflict murder upon. Now despised by the revolutionary left, he petitioned to return to Russia and became a vocal supporter of conservative principles, producing numerous social critiques and philosophical treatises. Collected here are the first two of these works, Why I Ceased to Be a Revolutionary and Beginnings & Ends, translated into English for the first time with an introduction by K. Benois. It is difficult to explain the obscurity of such an eminently intriguing personality, instrumental in building the world's first terrorist organisation and prophetic in realising where youthful nihilism would lead a doomed generation.

In stark contrast to the popular "clash of civilizations" theory that sees Islam inevitably in conflict with the West, Robert D. Crews reveals the remarkable ways in which Russia constructed an empire with broad Muslim support. For Prophet and Tsar unearths the fascinating relationship between an empire and its subjects. As America and Western Europe debate how best to secure the allegiances of their Muslim populations, Crews offers a unique and critical historical vantage point.

This book is a portrait of the Petaluma Jewish community from the early years of the century to the present day. Kenneth L. Kann interviewed more than two hundred residents, representing three generations of Jewish Americans. The picture that emerges from their testimony is of a wonderfully animated and fractious community. Its history blends many of the familiar themes of American Jewish life into a richly individual tapestry. In the first few decades of this century, many Jewish immigrants from Russia and Eastern Europe wound up in Petaluma. This first generation of chicken farmers consisted largely of educated, often professional men and women; many were drawn to chicken farming as much by Marxist or Zionist beliefs in the dignity of labor as by economic necessity. They helped establish the particular character of a community, with its combination of arduous work and cultural aspiration.

Few political figures of the twentieth century have aroused such intensities of fierce admiration and reactionary fear as Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky. His extraordinary life and extensive writings have left an indelible mark on the revolutionary consciousness. Yet there was once a danger that his life and influence would be relegated to the footnotes of history. Published over the course of ten years, beginning in 1954, Deutscher's magisterial three-volume biography turned back the tide of Stalin's propaganda, and has since been praised by everyone from Tony Blair to Graham Greene. In this definitive work, now reissued in a single volume, Trotsky's true stature emerges as the most heroic, and ultimately tragic, character of the Russian Revolution.

The russian novelist, prodigiously interpreting the terrorism of his time, also called nihilism, predicted, half a century in advance, the world of concentration camps which would come into being with the Gulag and the Lager. The events of the 19th century have subjected Dostoyevsky’s message to a surprising empirical verification. For this reason the Russian novelist is still extraordinarily relevant today, as highlighted by the author with his eyes focused on the present, as the repose of reason is always possible, and gives rise to monsters.
