The project analyses the history of Oriental and Islamic Studies in Russia, the Caucasus and Central Asia and its repercussions for the discipline today. Our first goal is to study the research agendas and ideological approaches of the Oriental Studies institutions that emerged in the course of 20th century in various republics of the USSR, the changing Soviet discourses on Islam and Muslim societies, the involvement of scholars in the party and state agencies, and their role in anti-religious propaganda.
Eligibility
The candidate is required to have a (research) master degree, preferably with a specialization in History, Islamic Studies, Anthropology, Political Studies, Central Asian Studies, or Russian Studies. For the necessary language skills, please see the extended project descriptions.
