Contents Comprehensive collectivization in Kirghiz Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic in 1929-1932: overcoming bias and partiality in assessing modernizing effects of Soviet collectivization on the Kyrgyz and their developmental advancement / (Bakyt Baimatov, PhD, Central Asian Program (CAP), Elliott School of International Affairs, the George Washington University, Washington, DC, US) -- Past and potential future socioeconomic impacts of environmental hazards in Kyrgyzstan / (Hans-Balder Havenith, Ruslan Umaraliev, Romy Schlögel, and Isakbek Torgoev, Department of Geology, University of Liege, Belgium, and others) -- Explaining Islamist orientations in Kyrgyzstan: evidence from survey research / (Paul Kubicek, Department of Political Science, Oakland University, Rochester MI, US).
Summary "In Chapter One, Dr. Bakyt Baimatov, PhD aims to demonstrate the way Soviet collectivization has ushered in plethora of tectonic changes in the consciousness and socioeconomic livelihoods of the rural poor in then Pre-Soviet Kirghizia, who were culturally and developmentally backward, arguing that the resulting transformations are unprecedented in the history of the Kyrgyz nation. In Chapter Two, Hans-Balder Havenith, Ruslan Umaraliev, Romy Schlögel, and Isakbek Torgoev provide a review of the socioeconomic impacts of natural disasters in Kyrgyzstan, attempting to show that earthquakes effected things like governmental structure at a central level. Lastly, Chapter Three by Paul Kubicek examines the degree of extremist organizations among Kyrgyz citizens, focusing on the impact of socioeconomic factors."--Provided by publisher.
