About the book

"Bruce Privratsky accounts for the persistence of Kazak religion during the Soviet period by the strength of the contextualization of Islam in the nomadic period and the capacity of the collective memory to store religious values in attenuated ritual forms. The author reconstructs collective memory theory in the light of the Kazak case, stripping it of its postmodernist baggage, and proposing a place for it in a general theory of religion."--BOOK JACKET.
