Washington, D.C . 20036 COPYRIGHT This paper was not produced under Council contract. It has been volunteered to the Council by the author under a limited release of copyright to the Council and to th e United States Government for internal use and reproduction, but not for publication by either. Land and Water Politics in Uzbekistan Don Van Atta Draft - please do not quote or cite without permission Summary This is a trip report based on the author's participation in a conference supported by the U.S . Department of State in Tashkent as well as on field observations in the Fergan a Valley of Uzbekistan . Uzbekistan is still a highly protected cotton colony but its agriculture is facing th e same structural and organizational problems, and the same need to change, as agriculture i n the rest of the former Soviet Union . How long this kind of compromise can hold together is very much in doubt . iii Land and Water Politics i n Uzbekistan* Don Van Atta Draft - please do not quote or cite without permission For anyone familiar with the immense changes Russia has undergone since 1989, a visit to Uzbekistan creates the sensation of having fallen into a time warp . Such, at least , was this writer's feeling during a week-long stay for a conference on water management and agricultural development in post-Soviet Central Asia organized by the East-West Center with support from the US Department of State .

  • Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945
    Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 By Charles David Shaw A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair Professor Victoria Frede-Montemayor Professor Victoria E. Bonnell Summer 2015 Abstract Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 by Charles David Shaw Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair This dissertation addresses the impact of World War II on Uzbek society and contends that the war era should be seen as seen as equally transformative to the tumultuous 1920s and 1930s for Soviet Central Asia. It argues that via the processes of military service, labor mobilization, and the evacuation of Soviet elites and common citizens that Uzbeks joined the broader “Soviet people” or sovetskii narod and overcame the prejudices of being “formerly backward” in Marxist ideology. The dissertation argues that the army was a flexible institution that both catered to national cultural (including Islamic ritual) and linguistic difference but also offered avenues for assimilation to become Ivan-Uzbeks, part of a Russian-speaking, pan-Soviet community of victors. Yet as the war wound down the reemergence of tradition and violence against women made clear the limits of this integration. The dissertation contends that the war shaped the contours of Central Asian society that endured through 1991 and created the basis for thinking of the “Soviet people” as a nation in the 1950s and 1960s.
