Consequently, an anti-colonial revolution in Asia was seen as the greatest threat to the USSR. The book questions the suitability of the colonial model for understanding the region's recent political history and challenges many of the assumptions which underlay the adoption of such a model, and examines how this one interpretation came to dominate western discourse to the virtual exclusion of all others. 410 0$aCentral Asia research forum series. 606 $aIslam and politics$zAsia, Central 607 $aAsia, Central$xForeign public opinion 607 $aAsia, Central$xPolitics and government$y1991- 615 0$aIslam and politics 676 $a958.0429 686 $a89.91$2bcl 700 $aMyer$b Will$f1968-$01867673 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965133003321 996 $aIslam and colonialism$94475345 997 $aUNINA
