Meticulously analyzed are Uzbek relations with their foreign rules, the Uzbek response to Russifications and modernization, and the ethic and religious issues in Uzbek society.
Also included is a critique of Soviet historiography and the underlying philosophical and ideological commintments that have shaped the study ofhistory in the Soviet Union. Invaluable to scholars is the survey and assessment of Uzbek documents in Turkish, European, and American depositories.
