Gong Jae-young et al.: Central Asia and Islam

The book describes the history, character and current appearance of Islam in Central Asia. During this time, when Islam was studied, there were often a decline in evaluation of Central Asian Islam. But Central Asia Islam is showing itself not in its immediate heart but in the middle of which it has succeeded and developed Sunni Hanafa's orthodox theology, while at the same time presenting a unique nature of Central Asian Islam that gives diversity to the Islamic world. It also explains the spread and legacy of Eastern Christianity as an example of Central Asia, remembering that it has been a place where so many religions have flourished: shamanism, Buddhism, Zoroastism, Maniism, and Eastern Christianity. It will provide a vital opportunity to look at Central Asia in terms of religious diversity and coexistence. The book specifically contains results from living and studying the region of Central Asia. The third part particularly reflects the results of real interviews and surveys on the scene, providing a lot of interesting material and stories that other books find undiscovered.
