  • Media Landscape in Uzbekistan
    Media Landscape in Uzbekistan Scorched earth: media in Uzbekistan between 2005 and 2016 Under the rule of President Islam Karimov (1991-2016), the media in Uzbekistan experienced significant pressure. The total domination of the media environment by censorship and threats to journalists meant there was no freedom of expression in the media at all. Follow us on LinkedIn Only a few websites such as Uznews.net, Ferghana.ru, and Neweurasia.net were brave enough to publish critical stories, and their offices were abroad. None of these websites were registered in the country. But all of them were blocked and only a few people were able to read it using a VPN (virtual private network). It was extremely dangerous to write for these outlets and many journalists faced threats or had to emigrate outside of Uzbekistan to seek safety. Local TV, radio, and newspapers were sterile in terms of criticism during this time. A 2006 Human Rights Watch report summarised the media environment in Uzbekistan at the time saying that ‘the government continues its practice of controlling, intimidating, and arbitrarily suspending or interfering with the work of civil society groups, the media, human rights activists, and opposition political parties. In particular, repression against independent journalists, human rights defenders, and opposition members increased this year.’[1] 2005 should be considered a watershed moment because, after the Andijan Events in 2005, the media environment was cleansed of any remaining opposition. Foreign journalists were banned and websites were blocked. I entered the National University of Uzbekistan Faculty of Journalism in 2004 and was a witness to these events.

Burrows Submitted in fulfillment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Media and Cultural Studies at the University of Sussex, May 2014 3 University of Sussex Karen K. Burrows Escaping the Honeytrap: Representations and Ramifications of the Female Spy on Television Since 1965 Summary My thesis interrogates the changing nature of the espionage genre on Western television since the middle of the Cold War. It uses close textual analysis to read the progressions and regressions in the portrayal of the female spy, analyzing where her representation aligns with the achievements of the feminist movement, where it aligns with popular political culture of the time, and what happens when the two factors diverge. I ask what the female spy represents across the decades and why her image is integral to understanding the portrayal of gender on television. I explore four pairs of television shows from various eras to demonstrate the importance of the female spy to the cultural landscape.

  • Om Smolansky
    O. M. SMOLANSKY (Bethlehem, Pa., U.S.A.) Khrushchev and the Yemeni Revolution (1962-1964): An Analysis of Soviet Policy and Attitudes* . In September, 1962, the ancient kingdom of Yemen, situated in the southwestern corner of the Arabian peninsula, was thrown into a state of turmoil which was to pervade the country's political and economic life for many years to come. Unlike earlier upheavals, which often marked the passing of power from one Imam to another and were usually resolved by an interplay of internal forces, the 1962 revolution sought the abolition of the Imamate itself and, for this reason, had far-reaching regional and international repercussions. Leading among them was the involvement of other Arab states, above all Egypt and Saudi Arabia, in the conflict. Along with their clients, the great powers once again became entangled in the web of inter-Arab politics. As the United States endeavored to balance its commitments to Saudi Arabia with a desire to maintain reasonably normal relations with Egypt, Great Britain and the USSR (though not to the same degree) found themselves on the opposite sides of the fence, lending moral and somee material backing to the contending factions in the Yemeni civil war. To the Soviet Union, the conflict in southwest Arabia was important because it constituted a struggle between "progressives" and "reactionaries," which presented a new opportunity to weaken Western positions in the Arab East, and because Egypt, Moscow's chief client in the Middle East, had become actively involved. However, while the USSR was concerned with the outcome of the Yemeni events, Soviet options in influencing their course were rather limited.

  • Tashkent COVID-19 Video Conference Calls for International Cooperation
    Tashkent COVID-19 Video Conference Calls for International Cooperation By Gregory Gleason, Pal Dunay, and Robert Baumann Executive Summary The COVID-19 infection spread rapidly through the Central Asian states in early 2020. Political leaders in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan were quick to adopt containment and mitigation policies to counter the spread of the disease, announcing national emergencies, establishing quarantines, ordering commercial and public institutions to temporary close, and restricting road, rail, air, and maritime transport routes. Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan, in particular, swiftly took steps to implement restrictions, impose curfews, and initiate sheltering- in-place measures. The neighboring Central Asian states of Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, meanwhile, instituted a number of counter-infection measures but did not acknowledge instances of COVID-19 infection.1 The Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies, a leading foreign area studies center in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, conducted an international video-teleconference on the topic of the coronavirus pandemic on April 22, 2020. George C. Marshall Center professors Dr. Pal Dunay and Dr. Gregory Gleason were invited as presenters at the international video conference. Also invited as a presenter was Dr. Robert Baumann, the director of graduate degree programs for the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College at Ft. Leavenworth. The Uzbek Academy of the Armed Forces was included in the video conference. Marshall Center alumni also participated and actively contributed to the discussions. The key questions facing the crisis caused by the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic were introduced by Gulchekhra Rikhsieva, Uzbekistan Senator and Rector of Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies.

  • The Cotton Scandal and Uzbek National Consciousness THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the R
    When a Pound Weighed a Ton: The Cotton Scandal and Uzbek National Consciousness THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Derek Edward Peterson Graduate Program in Slavic and East European Studies The Ohio State University 2013 Master's Examination Committee: Dr. Morgan Liu, Advisor Dr. David Hoffmann Dr. Scott Levi Copyright by Derek Edward Peterson 2013 Abstract During the reign of Leonid Brezhnev as General Secretary of the Soviet Union, corruption was hardly uncommon. Even by the standards of the era, the web of illegal activity that developed in the Uzbek S.S.R. was astonishing. Sharaf Rashidov was the man largely held as responsible for bringing about the massive amount of corrupt activity in Uzbekistan by utilizing cotton, Uzbekistan’s most important export, to build his network. Rashidov siphoned billions of rubles away from Moscow by falsely reporting cotton harvest numbers. But simply labeling Rashidov as a corrupt official or what became known as the Cotton Scandal as a typical example of Brezhnev-era corruption does not answer several important questions: was the scandal inevitable, what motivated Rashidov to engage in falsifying cotton reports, how did the exposure of the scandal impact how other Soviet citizens viewed Uzbekistan and finally, how did Uzbeks view themselves? This paper will examine the potential causes and motives of the scandal by exploring Rashidov’s life before taking control of the Uzbek Communist Party in 1959 as well as the cotton procurement policies dating back to the Stalin era.
