Bishkek Boys : Neighbourhood Youth and Urban Change in Kyrgyzstan’s Capital, Paperback / softback Book

Bishkek Boys : Neighbourhood Youth and Urban Change in Kyrgyzstan’s Capital Paperback / softback

Part of the Integration and Conflict Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

In this pioneering ethnographic study of identity and integration, author Philipp Schröder explores urban change in Kyrgyzstan’s capital Bishkek from the vantage point of the male youth living in one neighbourhood.

Touching on topics including authority, violence, social and imaginary geographies, interethnic relations, friendship, and competing notions of belonging to the city, Bishkek Boys offers unique insights into how post-Socialist economic liberalization, rural-urban migration and ethnic nationalism have reshaped social relations among young males who come of age in this Central Asian urban environment.
