Republic of Tajikistan Environmental Impact Assessment 1. Introduction and Background 1.1 Introduction The Republic of Tajikistan is a landlocked country and the smallest nation in Central Asia, by area, located between Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan in the west and in the north, Afghanistan in the south and China in the east. It is covered by mountains of Pamir range, and more than fifty per- cent of the country is over 3,000 meters (9,800 ft) above sea level. The Tajik Republic depends on external trade for its development, and is export-driven business in agriculture and industry requires fast, reliable and economically affordable transport (Figure 1). 70% of the Tajik population is under the age of 30 and 35% are between the ages of 14 and 30. The Republic of Tajikistan has a population of 7,349,145 (July 2009). Tajiks who speak the Tajik language (a variety of Persian) are the main ethnic group, although there is a sizable minority of Uzbeks and Russians, whose numbers are declining due to emigration. In 1989, ethnic Rus- sians made up 7.6% of the population, but they are now less than 0.5%, after civil war spurred Russian emigration. The Pamiris of Badakshan are considered to belong to the larger group of Tajiks. Tajikistan’s economic performance has been impressive in recent years, with an annual GDP (US$6.52 billion in 2011) growth of 8% during 2005-2009 and poverty level decreased from 81% in 1999 to 47.2% in 2009. (World Bank, TLSS ). In 2005 the Tajik GDP grew by 6.7%, to about US$1.89 billion,

  • Understanding Cross-Border Conflict in Post-Soviet Central Asia: the Case of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan
    Connections: The Quarterly Journal ISSN 1812-1098, e-ISSN 1812-2973 Toktomushev, Connections QJ 17, no. 1 (2018): 21-41 https://doi.org/10.11610/Connections.17.1.02 Research Article Understanding Cross-Border Conflict in Post-Soviet Central Asia: The Case of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan Kemel Toktomushev University of Central Asia, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, http://www.ucentralasia.org Abstract: Despite the prevalence of works on the ‘discourses of danger’ in the Ferghana Valley, which re-invented post-Soviet Central Asia as a site of intervention, the literature on the conflict potential in the cross-border areas of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan is fairly limited. Yet, the number of small-scale clashes and tensions on the borders of the Batken and Isfara regions has been growing steadily. Accordingly, this work seeks to con- tribute to the understanding of the conflict escalations in the area and identify factors that aggravate tensions between the communities. In par- ticular, this article focuses on four variables, which exacerbate tensions and hinder the restoration of a peaceful social fabric in the Batken-Isfara region: the unresolved legacies of the Soviet past, inefficient use of natu- ral resources, militarization of borders, and lack of evidence-based poli- cymaking. Keywords: Central Asia, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Ferghana, conflict, bor- ders. Introduction The significance and magnitude of violence and conflict potential in the con- temporary Ferghana Valley has been identified as one of the most prevalent themes in the study of post-Soviet Central Asia. This densely populated region has been long portrayed as a site of latent inter-ethnic conflict. Not only is the Ferghana Valley a region, where three major ethnic groups—Kyrgyz, Uzbeks and Tajiks—co-exist in a network of interdependent communities, sharing buri- Partnership for Peace Consortium of Defense Creative Commons Academies and Security Studies Institutes BY-NC-SA 4.0 Kemel Toktomushev, Connections QJ 17, no.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Early History: Iranian peoples such as the Soghdians and the Bactrians are the ethnic forbears of the modern Tajiks. They have inhabited parts of Central Asia for at least 2,500 years, assimilating with Turkic and Mongol groups. Between the sixth and fourth centuries B.C., present-day Tajikistan was part of the Persian Achaemenian Empire, which was conquered by Alexander the Great in the fourth century B.C. After that conquest, Tajikistan was part of the Greco-Bactrian Kingdom, a successor state to Alexander’s empire.

  • 2.4 Tajikistan Railway Assessment
    2.4 Tajikistan Railway Assessment Railway Companies and Consortia Capacity Table Key Route Information Key Stations/Dry Ports Railway Procedures Tajikistan depends on rail transport for the movement of most commodities into the country and for exports, mainly cotton – fibers and aluminium. According to official reports of Rail authorities there were 79594 freight rail cars entering and exiting Tajikistan in 2017. In 2017, 4.7 million mt were transported into or out of the country by rail a drop of 0.8 million mt from the previous year. International passenger traffic totalled 530,600 which is a decline of 78,500 passengers compared to 2016. All cargo and passenger traffic along Uzbekistan section of railroad have stood idle since November 2011. During official visits of the Uzbekistan president to Tajikistan, all the boarders were opened. Uzbekistan has reportedly completed repair works on a long-idle railroad linking it to southern Tajikistan and start resuming train traffic from March 2018. From January to April 2018, there was a total of 1.6 million mt imported and 1.2 million mt exported through railway stations. There is little or no domestic movement of goods by rail within the country. There is also little or no use of the railway network for passenger movements within the country. The only passenger trains depart Khujand or Dushanbe twice weekly for Moscow. The rail network was built during the Soviet era and connected all the Soviet Republics. Tajikistan is integrated to this system and can move/receive any cargo to/from any of these. There is passenger rail traffic moving mostly to Russia three times a week.

  • The World Bank the STATE STATISTICAL COMMITTEE of the REPUBLIC of TAJIKISTAN Foreword
    The World Bank THE STATE STATISTICAL COMMITTEE OF THE REPUBLIC OF TAJIKISTAN Foreword This atlas is the culmination of a significant effort to deliver a snapshot of the socio-economic situation in Tajikistan at the time of the 2000 Census. The atlas arose out of a need to gain a better understanding among Government Agencies and NGOs about the spatial distribution of poverty, through its many indicators, and also to provide this information at a lower level of geographical disaggregation than was previously available, that is, the Jamoat. Poverty is multi-dimensional and as such the atlas includes information on a range of different indicators of the well- being of the population, including education, health, economic activity and the environment. A unique feature of the atlas is the inclusion of estimates of material poverty at the Jamoat level. The derivation of these estimates involves combining the detailed information on household expenditures available from the 2003 Tajikistan Living Standards Survey and the national coverage of the 2000 Census using statistical modelling. This is the first time that this complex statistical methodology has been applied in Central Asia and Tajikistan is proud to be at the forefront of such innovation. It is hoped that the atlas will be of use to all those interested in poverty reduction and improving the lives of the Tajik population. Professor Shabozov Mirgand Chairman Tajikistan State Statistical Committee Project Overview The Socio-economic Atlas, including a poverty map for the country, is part of the on-going Poverty Dialogue Program of the World Bank in collaboration with the Government of Tajikistan.
