Description and Table of Contents
Description
Yet they remain poorly represented in libraries and mainstream media. They have experienced tremendous socio-political change since their inception. But despite the growth of oil wealth, the arrival of western tourists, and the competition for influence by the US, China and Russia, the spirit of Central Asia has remained untouched at its core. In this comprehensive book, Dilip Hiro analyses the present-day politics, economics and peoples of Central Asia and its neighbouring areas in an international context. In the process, he draws a detailed portrait of the region which historically has close ties with India.
