Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of the attempt by the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to create proactive acquiescent citizens amongst the Muslim Uzbek and Central Asian peoples of Uzbekistan. The focus of this book is Soviet youth movements in Uzbekistan 1924-1991 - with an emphasis upon the 1980s. The two youth movements are the Young Pioneers and the Komsomol. The intention of the CPSU was to establish a Soviet people from amidst diversity and plurality consisting of loyal workers with a shared ideological consciousness. In this book I examine how the Communist Party sought to achieve mass compliance from the people of Uzbekistan through a mix of state-civic socialization channels and values and the benefits of material social development and the promotion of a national culture. A key partner in this process were the socialization channels of schools and colleges, civic ceremonies, youth movements, and physical culture. In light of the historical events I will explain the significance of youth movements as core Soviet state socialization channels and citizenship education in Uzbekistan, analyze the phenomenon of Soviet state-civic identity amongst the Uzbeks and highlight the function of state-civic values and norms in cementing compliance and common purpose.

This book was released on 2012-06-12 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Revised 2014 edition) How, where, when and why, did the Soviets educate and indoctrinate young citizens outside of the school environment? What was the link between the school and youth movement in the USSR? What were Soviet values? In this extended academic article I answer these questions, and more. The article contains 60 pages of analysis that explains, for the first time in the English language, how the Communist Party of the Soviet Union fostered proactive citizenship amongst the young people of Uzbekistan. 'The Young Pioneers and the Komsomol of Uzbekistan' contains parts (1) Union-wide Youth Movements, (2) Uzbekistan: the Young Pioneers, (3) Union-wide: Komsomol, (4) Uzbekistan: Komsomol, (5) Conclusion. So, my article moves from the general union-wide (the USSR) to the specific (Uzbekistan as a case study). The historiography content of this work is based upon Western English language and Soviet era translated (from Russian) sources. I outline the influence of Cold War thinking on these western historical documents. Indeed, Uzbekistan was a multi-ethnic society consisting of Uzbeks, Tajiks, Karakalpaks, and the other Central Asian peoples, Tatars, Russians, Ukrainians, Germans, Jews, Koreans, and more. The focus of my work are two Soviet era youth movements operating in Uzbekistan from 1924 to 1991, with an emphasis upon the 1980s. The two youth movements under investigation are the Young Pioneers and the Komsomol. The aim of the communist regime was to establish a Soviet people from amidst ethnic and social diversity and plurality - consisting of loyal workers with a shared ideological consciousness. In light of the historical events after 1991 I will explain the significance of Soviet youth movements as a core state socialization channel. The role of this particular socialisation channel was to inculcate and support citizenship education, values and norms. This extended paper will analyse the phenomenon of Soviet state-civic identity alongside youth movements. I argue, if we want to better understand the mentalities of the current crop of post-Soviet era leaders in Eurasia, we need to examine the Soviet education and indoctrination they experienced as children and young adults. The legacy of one's past can, and often does, re-emerge many year's later as the stresses of adult life kick in. Clearly, under the Soviet system adults were socialised as they progressed through life. In our contemporary society - dominated by the ideology of individualism and capitalism - the processes of adult socialisation are less obvious and less present in everyday life. This article explains the educational upbringing of today's Eurasian leaders. Eurasian leaders over the aged 40 or more would have been members of the Pioneers and the Komsomol. How did these institutions work on young minds? And just as important, this extended article looks at the upbringing of the masses and how their everyday life was influenced by socialism, western Enlightenment values, social interventionism, and Revolution. This article is one facet of my completed PHD thesis ('Implementing a Vision of Citizenship in Soviet Uzbekistan: Theory, Social issues and Education', and available at the library of SOAS, University of London).

Book excerpt: In the first book to trace the Russian state’s citizenship policy throughout its history, Lohr argues that to understand the citizenship dilemmas Russia faces today, we must return to the less xenophobic and isolationist pre-Stalin period—before the drive toward autarky after 1914 eventually sealed the state off from Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book takes a critical and international perspective to the mainstreaming of the Global Citizenship Concept and analyses the key issues regarding global citizenship education across the world. In that respect, it addresses a pressing need to provide further conceptual input and to open global citizenship agendas to diversity and indigeneity. Social and political changes brought by globalisation, migration and technological advances of the 21st century have generated a rise in the popularity of the utopian and philosophical idea of global citizenship. In response to the challenges of today’s globalised and interconnected world, such as inequality, human rights violations and poverty, global citizenship education has been invoked as a means of preparing youth for an inclusive and sustainable world. In recent years, the development of global citizenship education and the building of students’ global citizenship competencies have become a focal point in global agendas for education, international educational assessments and international organisations. However, the concept of global citizenship education still remains highly contested and subject to multiple interpretations, and its operationalisation in national educational policies proves to be challenging. This volume aims to contribute to the debate, question the relevancy of global citizenship education’s policy objectives and to enhance understanding of local perspectives, ideologies, conceptions and issues related to citizenship education on a local, national and global level. To this end, the book provides a comprehensive and geographically based overview of the challenges citizenship education faces in a rapidly changing global world through the lens of diversity and inclusiveness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Stronski tells the fascinating story of Tashkent, an ethnically diverse, primarily Muslim city that became the prototype for the Soviet-era reimagining of urban centers in Central Asia. Based on extensive research in Russian and Uzbek archives, Stronski shows us how Soviet officials, planners, and architects strived to integrate local ethnic traditions and socialist ideology into a newly constructed urban space and propaganda showcase. The Soviets planned to transform Tashkent from a "feudal city" of the tsarist era into a "flourishing garden," replete with fountains, a lakeside resort, modern roadways, schools, hospitals, apartment buildings, and of course, factories. The city was intended to be a shining example to the world of the successful assimilation of a distinctly non-Russian city and its citizens through the catalyst of socialism. As Stronski reveals, the physical building of this Soviet city was not an end in itself, but rather a means to change the people and their society. Stronski analyzes how the local population of Tashkent reacted to, resisted, and eventually acquiesced to the city's socialist transformation. He records their experiences of the Great Terror, World War II, Stalin's death, and the developments of the Krushchev and Brezhnev eras up until the earthquake of 1966, which leveled large parts of the city. Stronski finds that the Soviets established a legitimacy that transformed Tashkent and its people into one of the more stalwart supporters of the regime through years of political and cultural changes and finally during the upheavals of glasnost.

Download or read book Soviet Nation Building in Central Asia written by Grigol Ubiria and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-09-16 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demise of the Soviet Union in 1991 resulted in new state-led nation-building projects in Central Asia. The emergence of independent republics spawned a renewed Western scholarly interest in the region’s nationality issues. Presenting a detailed study, this book examines the state-led nation-building projects in the Soviet republics of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Exploring the degree, forms and ways of the Soviet state involvement in creating Kazakh and Uzbek nations, this book places the discussion within the theoretical literature on nationalism. The author argues that both Kazakh and Uzbek nations are artificial constructs of Moscow-based Soviet policy-makers of the 1920s and 1930s. This book challenges existing arguments in current scholarship by bringing some new and alternative insights into the role of indigenous Central Asian and Soviet officials in these nation-building projects. It goes on to critically examine post-Soviet official Kazakh and Uzbek historiographies, according to which Kazakh and Uzbek peoples had developed national collective identities and loyalties long before the Soviet era. This book will be a useful contribution to Central Asian History and Politics, as well as studies of Nationalism and Soviet Politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers perspectives from the general public in post-Soviet Central Asia and reconsiders the meaning and the legacy of Soviet administration in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. This study emphasizes that the way in which people in Central Asia reconcile their Soviet past to a great extent refers to the three-fold process of recollecting their everyday experiences, reflecting on their past from the perspective of their post-Soviet present, and re-imagining. These three elements influence memories and lead to selectivity in memory construction. This process also emphasizes the aspects of the Soviet era people choose to recall in positive and negative lights. Ultimately, this book demonstrates how Soviet life has influenced the identity and understanding of self among the population in post-Soviet Central Asian states.
