The problems were not confined to internal tensions between ethnic groups but extend also to relations with neighbouring Muslim states, as the invasion of Afghanistan graphically illustrated. This volume, first published in 1984, addresses this field of unique importance. Topics covered encompass the living standards of the Soviet Muslim population, the religious revival, relations with the Arab world, the Soviet experience of guerrilla warfare in Afghanistan and many more. In short it provides coverage of the sociological, political, cultural, economic, ideological and international dimensions of Soviet-Muslim relations. 410 0$aRoutledge Library Editions: Politics of the Middle East 606 $aMuslims$zAsia, Central$vCongresses 607 $aMiddle East$xForeign relations$zSoviet Union$vCongresses 607 $aSoviet Union$xForeign relations$zMiddle East$vCongresses 607 $aAfghanistan$xHistory$ySoviet occupation, 1979-1989$vCongresses 615 0$aMuslims 676 $a327.56047 676 $a327.4701767 701 $aRo'i$b Yaacov$0551274 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817435803321 996 $aThe USSR and the Muslim world$94055595 997 $aUNINA
