Leveraging ICTs: Central Asian women's agency in the context of bride kidnapping
Technology‐Enabled Surveillance as a Regime Characteristic: Re‐Authoritarianization in Central Asia
Rapidly advancing information and communication technologies, along with the proliferation of artificial intelligence and closed‐circuit television, have profoundly reshaped state‐society relations worldwide. Initially celebrated for their democratizing potential, these technologies have, over the past two decades, ushered in a wave of technology‐enabled re‐authoritarianization, with even established democracies now “at risk.” While numerous term…
From Old to New Colonial Dependencies: Public Perceptions of Chinese Surveillance Cameras in Central Asia
While a growing body of literature examines the role of Chinese surveillance cameras in the technological rivalry between China and the US, relatively little is known about how publics in the Global South perceive and respond to the growing presence of these technologies in their communities. This research note seeks to address this gap through an empirical analysis of 105 individual and 40 focus group interviews conducted with the wider Russian‐…
Researching Central Asia: Navigating Positionality in the Field
Introduction: LGBTQ + visibilities in the Caucasus and Central Asia
The idea for this collection of papers emerged from a desire to showcase queer scholarship in and on the region, following a panel discussion about the visibility of queer communities in the post-Soviet space at the ASEEES virtual convention in December 2021. The panellists’ discussions highlighted the ongoing challenges of queer knowledge production and the tendency for scholarship produced by and on queer people in the region to be regarded as …
Smartphones and public support for LGBTQ+ in Central Asia
The persistent accusations about the Internet’s role in spreading pro-gay attitudes, the prevalence of media censorship across Central Asia and activists’ frequent use of the Internet all raise important questions about online influence on public opinion regarding non-heterosexual people in Central Asia. So far, there is little research on the question of what impact the popularization of the Internet has on Central Asians’ tolerance toward queer…
Diversifying/revitalizing the study of Central Asia and the Caucasus
This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Central Asian Survey on 30 November 2023, available at: https://doi.org/10.1080/02634937.2023.2273964 . \n \n Much has been spoken and written about the need to revitalize/diversify the study of Central Asia and the Caucasus in recent years. Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, conversations about the need to decentre the study of the region from …
Let’s talk about researchers’ mental well-being
Although mental health concerns among university populations are on the rise, discussions of academia-related trauma rarely occur in published outlets. They are usually limited to informal talks and the private exchange of anecdotes during conferences and workshops. This is problematic because accounts of how to mitigate stress, anxiety and depression in the academic environment are valuable for both early-career and senior researchers. In being …
Fieldwork Under Surveillance: A Research Note
Apart from some rare personal accounts where researchers reflect on doing fieldwork in Russia and China, the ethical and methodological challenges of conducting research “under surveillance” are rarely discussed in published form because they may raise unwanted attention from the authorities, and this could create barriers for scholars wishing to access the region in the future. Nevertheless, reflections on how to navigate the quandaries that mig…
Patriots or World Citizens: The Identity of Post-Soviet People in a Globalised World
After the collapse of the USSR, the successor states faced a single but contradictory challenge: the need to adapt to general rules of globalisation and simultaneously preserve their nation’s uniqueness. It is under these circumstances that some former Soviet citizens have developed a stronger attachment to their national identity. This original study employs a multilevel approach relying on survey data to analyse how a former Soviet republic’s l…
Online Temptations: Divorce and Extramarital Affairs in Kazakhstan
In recent years, the institution of marriage in Muslim Central Asia has undergone profound transformations in terms of religious dynamics, migration patterns, and the impact of globalization. In Kazakhstan between 2014 and 2019, every third marriage ended in divorce. By examining how Muslim Kazakhs' support for divorce and casual sex is related to their consumption of information obtained on the Internet, mobile phone, and social media, this stud…
