The USSR and the Muslim World : Issues in Domestic and Foreign Policy, Paperback / softback Book

The USSR and the Muslim World : Issues in Domestic and Foreign Policy Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Politics of the Middle East series

Paperback / softback

Description

The large and rapidly increasing Muslim population of the USSR put an immense strain on the Soviet political system, dominated as it is by Russians.

The problems were not confined to internal tensions between ethnic groups but extend also to relations with neighbouring Muslim states, as the invasion of Afghanistan graphically illustrated.

This volume, first published in 1984, addresses this field of unique importance.

Topics covered encompass the living standards of the Soviet Muslim population, the religious revival, relations with the Arab world, the Soviet experience of guerrilla warfare in Afghanistan and many more.

In short it provides coverage of the sociological, political, cultural, economic, ideological and international dimensions of Soviet-Muslim relations.
