  • Soviet and Muslim. The Institutionalization of Islam in Central Asia, 1943-1991. Oxford University Press, 2017. 432p. Hardback. Series: Religion and Global Politics. In Soviet and Muslim, Eren Tasar presents the fascinating history of the major Soviet muftiate, the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Central Asia and Kazakhstan (SADUM) ... one will read Tasar's book not as a history of Islam in the region but as a well-written account of how the Soviets promoted a monopolist religious bureaucracy that had no precedent in the region, and how this muftiate in turn embraced the opportunities provided by the Soviet system.
