This is the 35th issue we produced Diplomacy-ebook/dp/B015XAJFM0 since I returned as Lead Editor back in 2007.

Sometimes I games/treachery-s-the-way-to-win-at-diplomacy-which- feel very connected to the hobby and what is going on, makes-it-just-like-the-real-thing-10485417.html and at other times I feel like I am completely out of the loop.

  • Nothing to Lose but Their Veils Failure and ‘Success’ of the Hujum in Uzbekistan, 1927-1953
    Nothing to Lose but Their Veils Failure and ‘Success’ of the Hujum in Uzbekistan, 1927-1953 Word count: 25,896 Maarten Voets Student number: 01205641 Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Rozita Dimova, Prof. Dr. Bruno De Cordier A dissertation submitted to Ghent University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master in East European Languages and Cultures. Academic year: 2016 – 2017 August, 2017 2 Abstract The title of this work is a reference to Marx’ famous quote, ‘The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains.’ When the proletariat eventually took over control of the former Russian Empire after the October Revolution and the subsequent Russian civil war (1917 – 1923), they had to spread the revolution to the periphery; Central Asia. To gain support in Uzbekistan from the local (female) population the Communist Party commenced the Hujum campaign on the 8th of March 1927. This campaign targeted traditions that they considered derogatory to women, in particular the wearing of the local veil, or ‘paranja’. The campaign was a complete failure due to vehement Uzbek resistance. Yet, nowadays the paranja is little more than a museum piece. The veil disappeared from the street view from the 1950’s onwards. In my research I want to give an explanation for this delayed success. Yet, in a way the Hujum still carries on: both Central Asian and Western countries have a mixed stance on the modern variants of the paranja, as shown in the existence of burqa bans. I have analysed relevant events (such as Stalin’s purges, deportations, the battle against the Basmachi) from before, during, and after the initial Hujum and placed them inside a Gramscian framework to explain their effects on the civil and political society in Uzbekistan.

  • Exiled Imam Denies Links to Arrested Tashkent Muslims
    FORUM 18 NEWS SERVICE, Oslo, Norway http://www.forum18.org/ The right to believe, to worship and witness The right to change one's belief or religion The right to join together and express one's belief This article was published by F18News on: 12 April 2006 UZBEKISTAN: Exiled imam denies links to arrested Tashkent Muslims By Igor Rotar, Forum 18 News Service <http://www.forum18.org> At least 22 Muslims are believed to have been arrested in the Uzbek capital Tashkent in a crackdown launched in late March. The authorities accuse them of being extremists and claim they had links with exiled imam Obidhon qori Nazarov and another imam, Ruhiddin Fahrutdinov, extradited back to Uzbekistan by the Kazakh authorities last November. Nazarov denies any links to the detainees. "Maybe some of these people heard my sermons or studied with my students," he told Forum 18 News Service from exile in western Europe. "But in fact the only 'crime' all these people committed is that they are devout Muslims." Human rights activist Surat Ikramov agrees. "The only guilt of the detainees is that they regularly read the namaz [daily prayers]," he told Forum 18. Exiled Tashkent imam Obidhon qori Nazarov, who had to flee Uzbekistan to avoid arrest in 1998, has denied to Forum 18 News Service that he had links with any of the Muslims recently held in mass arrests in the Uzbek capital and accused of maintaining contact with him. "Maybe some of these people heard my sermons or studied with my students," he declared. "But in fact the only 'crime' all these people committed is that they are devout Muslims." Nazarov was speaking to Forum 18 on 11 April from the western European country where he has now been granted refugee status through the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

  • Images of Women in the Cinema of Uzbekistan
    Images of Women in the Cinema of Uzbekistan Nigora Karimova Institute of Fine Arts Studies, Academy of Sciences, Uzbekistan Introduction Uzbek cinematography was born during the active development of a new urban culture in Turkestan (Russian and Soviet Central Asia) at the beginning of the 20th century. Within only twenty years this young art began with making its first attempts at silent movies and produced great screen masterpieces such as “Tahir and Zuhra” (Тахир и Зухра), “Alisher Navoiy” (Алишер Навои), and “Adventures of Nasriddin” (Похождения Насреддина). During these years, a whole generation of women cinematographers were born and developed their craft from scratch, an achievement that can only be called legendary. Lolakhon Saifullina (Лолахон Сайфуллина), Valentina Sobberey (Валентина Собберей), Shahida Magzumova (Шахида Магзумова), Nazira Alieva (Назира Алиева), Yulduz Rizaeva (Юлдуз Ризаева), Lyutfihanum Sarymsakova (Лютфиханум Сарымсакова), Mariyam Yakubova (Марьям Якубова)―these are the representative names of a legendary generation, which are entered in the history of Uzbek visual culture of the 20th century in gold letters. The formation of cinema in Uzbekistan coincided with many social and political reforms of the Soviet state, including land and water reform, the fight against illiteracy, and the campaign for the liberation of women, or “Hujum” (which in Arabic means “attack”). Images of women of the new world were created during the Soviet era of silent cinema. In the mid-1930s, photographs of happy women 1 constituted 70 percent of the visual information in illustrated magazines and cinema journals for the mass audience, with almost no reports on political processes. The plots of all the “silent films” of the 1920s and 30s ―including “A Death Minaret” (Минарет смерти, 1925), “A Second Wife” (Вторая жена, 1927), “Leper” (Прокажённая, 1928), “Chador” (Чадра, 1930), and “Daughter of the Saint” (Дочь святого, 1932)―were built around the fate of a central female character.

Something Borrowed, Something Red –Textiles in Colonial and Soviet Central Asia Kate Fitz Gibbon Anahita Gallery Santa Fe, NM [email protected] We should like, of course, to send the paranji and chachvon to hell, but we cannot always get everything we want by issuing decrees. Nadezhda Krupskaia1 Introduction This paper traces the appropriation and manipulation of traditional textiles and textile designs for political purposes from the Russian colonial period to the present in Central Asia. It is less focused on identifying specific borrowings back and forth between the dominant Russian and dependent Central Asian geographical spheres, and more on incidents that illustrate the use of textiles and the manipulation of textile design in ways that furthered this political paradigm. Within these back and forth equations, the most important textile by far (although also the least interesting in terms of aesthetics, invention or multiplicity of use) is the chachvon, the horsehair veil, but other textiles and textile designs functioned as symbolically representative of Central Asian identity or as symbolizing a change taking place in society.
