[electronic resource] :}, publisher = {Palgrave Macmillan, Springer,}, abstract = {This book offers a novel interpretation of Russian contemporary discourse on Islam and its influence on Russian state policies. It shifts the analytical perspective from the discussion about Russia's Islam as a potential security threat to a more comprehensive view of the relationships of Muslims with Russia as a state and a civilization. The work demonstrates how many Muslims increasingly express a sense of belonging to Russia and are increasingly willing to contribute to state building processes.}, recid = {789740}, pages = {1 online resource (245 pages)}, address = {Cham :}, year = {2017}, }
