by Maria Elisabeth Louw (Author)
Providing empirical research on the everyday practise of Islam in post-Soviet Central Asia, this book gives an account of how Islam is understood and practised among ordinary Muslims in the region, focusing in particular on Uzbekistan. It also shows how Islam facilitates the pursuit of more modest goals of agency and belonging.
