PUBL.- Islamic Education in the Soviet Union and Its Successor States Islamic Education in the Soviet Union and Its Successor States, edited by Michael Kemper, Raoul Motika, Stefan Reichmuth (London: Routledge: Central Asian Studies, 2009), 367 pp. ISBN 978-0-415-36815-5 (hardcover) The volume offers a comparative history of Islamic education in the Soviet Union and the post-Soviet countries. Case studies on Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and two regions of the Russian Federation (Tatarstan and Daghestan) highlight the importance which Muslim communities in all parts of the Soviet Union continued to attach to their formal and informal institutions of Islamic instruction. Special attention is paid to the specific regional traditions of Islamic learning, to the teachers' affiliations with Islamic legal schools and Sufi brotherhoods, and to their international contacts. The volume thus testifies to the astounding dynamics of Islamic education under rapidly changing and oftentimes extremely harsh political conditions.
