Central Asia’s Coverage in the Border Studies Literature: A Systematic Review of Fundamental Contributions to the Field
Abstrak
This article assesses how the five Central Asian republics are covered in the field of English-language border studies. It features the social science literature which places one or multiple borders at the core of their study. I argue that the work on borders by scholars of Central Asia is not only well located in border studies debates but that it also contributes to renewing it. By reviewing 76 references of research works dealing with Central Asian borders, I contend that those are not peripheral examples of larger epistemological conversations of the field but an integral and legitimate part of it. This article is an attempt to establish a state of the art of borders in the region and could serve scholars interested in informing dominant concepts and theories of border studies or to position their own research in the existing literature.
