Female spiritual authorities play an important role in the perpetuation of local spiritual and cultural heritage. Performing an Uzbek tradition, the otynchalar incarnate a relation between the Uzbek and Kyrgyz culture that has received rather little attention. At the same time, their agency takes place in an environment that aims to clearly define a national and religious identity. How do the otynchalar, but also other women transmit local spiritual knowledge in Kyrgyzstan today and how has this evolved over the last years? How do they relate to these dynamics, to the secular state and to the transforming religious landscape of the country? Does this influence their practices, their discourses, their role in the community and if yes, how?

The city is the place where inequality, injustice and exploitation are most visible, but it is also the site of its transformation and resistance. The right to the city has emerged as a call for action encouraging local communities to transform urban realities under the principles of socio-spatial justice. The city is a theater of everyday life, and physical spaces of the city are its stage used by the city dwellers to claim, transform and appropriate those spaces and places in the form of protests, performance acts or individual struggles.
Tanya will give a glance on different ways to claim the right to the city she has encountered throughout her studies, work and personal experiences. In particular, she will talk about the traditional way of how the right to the city can be expressed as a collective voice in the form of women鈥檚 struggles to build their capacity for meaningful participation in urban development and governance, or citizens who defend their homes in informal settlements in Portugal and Turkey. Then, examples of a more individual and subtle approach to demand the right to the city will be brought up by the practices of urban exploration of abandoned and hidden spots in the cities. She will also bring an example of how an anthropological approach to study the right to the city was a way to influence the decision-making process of the urban renewal project in Spain.
Tanya Efremenko holds a Bachelor鈥檚 degree in Anthropology from AUCA and a Master鈥檚 degree in Urban Studies as a part of Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters Degree in four cities (Brussels, Vienna, Copenhagen, Madrid). After completing her studies, she moved to Denmark to start working as a project coordinator at the art gallery. Later she completed an internship and worked at the Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies. In 2018, she also became a co-founder of a start-up, where they help small and medium companies to integrate circular economy principles in their business models.

Upon expiration of the statute of limitations, it is now believed that survivors of the Osh two-days in 2010 have been successfully recovered. Moreover, emotionally saturated words, such as 鈥渃risis鈥�, 鈥渕assacre鈥� and 鈥渨ar鈥�, are tacitly forbidden, and not recommended to use in academic articles. Instead of these objectives, a neutral substitute - 鈥渆vents鈥� is recommended 鈥� a concept, which does not reflect the significance of harm to the mental health of Kyrgyz citizens due to the Osh massacre in 2010. This research has been going for 8 years (from 2010 till present) in order to study the dynamics of symptoms of post-traumatic stress among the Osh massacre survivors, and those children who were 9 years or older at the time of the events.
Elena Molchanova, M, from Psychology Department has been working with Osh professionals in the Mental health sphere since June 2010.

This talk is based on Elena's recent publication in an edited collection "Victim, Perpetrator, or What Else?: Generational and Gender Perspectives on Children, Youth, and Violence", edited by D. B眉hler-Niederberger and L. Alberth and publisehd by Emerald Publishing.
The research focuses on institutional processes addressing child marriage in Kyrgyzstan with an emphasis on the operation of state-sponsored institutions of secondary education and their management strategies deployed when a child marriage comes under their purview. Based on thirty-two child marriage cases, contradictions between the recently emerging nationally recognized commitment to combatting violence against school children in Kyrgyzstan and the actual work done to protect schoolgirls from child marriage are identified. Administrative practices used by educational managers construct married schoolgirls as 鈥榰nfit for schooling鈥� and act in accordance with such a construction. Using D. E. Smith鈥檚 feminist-inspired alternative sociology approach, Institutional Ethnography, as a conceptual framework, I argue that what happens is much more complex and nuanced than what is typically seen as 鈥榤ere鈥� lack of acceptance, concealment or acquiescence. The presented study describes, maps and analyzes this institutional system to 鈥渞each beyond the locally observable and discoverable into the trans-local social relations and organizations that permeate and control the local鈥� (Smith, 2006, p. 65). Taking my inquiry from the married girls鈥� standpoint, I discover that their exclusion is articulated by the system of schools鈥� appraisal and monitoring, both organized politically and administratively as an extension of government and its efforts to reform the national comprehensive education system and ensure national security and peace. I discover that, in this system, the concept of 鈥榗hild bride鈥� is treated with striking ambivalence in the institutional and public discourses and the notion of 鈥榲iolence鈥� is applied to child marriage in an inconsistent manner. Conceptual instability of child marriage as violence informs practices which often results in preventing young girls from formal schooling. When child brides are not immediately recognized as legitimate victims eligible for state protection, they become easily and eagerly erased in and by the system of secondary education. Schools, conceptualized as important allies in anti-child marriage programmes, fail to provide protection to their own students and work to exacerbate young girls鈥� marginalization and contribute to Kyrgyzstan鈥檚 new image as a regional hotbed of child marriages in the region. I empirically trace discursive linkages connecting national discourses on violence against children to specific programs and the organization of school work in relation to child marriage identifying, thereby, the place and role of the concept of 鈥榗hild marriage鈥� in these institutional settings. The settings which, I argue, ultimately work to 鈥榰nmake鈥� child marriage as an act of violence against girl child.

Episodes of the Kyrgyz-language epic Manas collected by Wilhelm Radloff in 1862 and 1869 feature 鈥極rus鈥� (Russians). This detail fits awkwardly with later scholarly attempts to find historical evidence in the Manas epos for earlier Kyrgyz history. This talk suggests that the presence of Russians in the narratives provide another type of historical evidence: records of nineteenth-century Kyrgyz views concerning the increasing presence of Russian colonialism.

This thesis illustrates the results of the archaeobotanical study carried out at the long-lived site of Arslantepe (Malatya), Turkey. The study focusses on 131 carpological samples from the village of the Early Bronze Age (VIB2 period, 3100-2900 cal. BCE) destroyed by a fire. The aim of this study was to study the functional roles of structures from Early Bronze Age Ib using plant remains. 63,941 seeds/fruits, including the estimated ones, have been analyzed. This study has identified 15 taxa belonging to 7 plant families. Cultivated species were found together with wild plants and non-economic weeds. The distribution of plant remains in the rooms allows to find out that Building IX inhabitants were mainly specialized in cereal production. This building has been used for crop processing, storing and food consumption. While Building VIII was not a place where crop processing had been practiced. As regards an isolated room A472, inhabitants of this room cultivated not only cereals but also legumes. Based on the results, agriculture at Arslantepe was family-based.

Using examples from his fieldwork in Russia, Poland and Tajikistan, Dr. Lemon will reflect on how ethnographic approaches can enhance our understanding of security. He will examine how individuals experience security issues, cope with and resist security practices. He will focus on the repression of religious and political groups in the name of counter-extremism. Dr. Lemon will focus on the subjects of securitization, those who have been deemed a threat by Central Asian regimes.
Dr Edward Lemon is DMGS-Kennan Institute Fellow at the Daniel Morgan Graduate School and a Global Fellow at the Wilson Center in Washington DC. His research examines security, counter-extremism and authoritarianism in Central Asia. He is the editor of Critical Approaches to Security in Central Asia (Routledge, 2018).

Description: This talk will offer preliminary results from an ongoing fieldwork project interviewing demobilized Central Asian participants in the ongoing conflicts in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan. The dataset, collected in partnership with Sirojiddin Tolibov, provides a unique window into the recruiting process and decisions surrounding the ethics and morality of the use of violence through interviews primarily with interlocutors located in either still in combat or who demobilized voluntarily and have sought asylum or refugee status in in Turkey rather than returning home.
Noah Tucker is research associate at George Washington University's Elliot School of International Affairs Central Asia Program. He was previously Executive Editor for RFE/RL鈥檚 Uzbek Service and the Not in Our Name film and television series, the first region-wide project designed to counter violent extremism in Central Asia. Noah has worked on collaborative projects to identify the way social and religious groups affect political and security outcomes and headed a team that tracks social media use by Uzbek violent extremist organizations and their effect on the Uzbek language internet and the way culture shapes the conflict in Afghanistan. Recent publications include 鈥淭errorism without a God: Reconsidering Radicalization and Counter-Radicalization Models in Central Asia鈥� (GWU Central Asia Program September 2019).

Based on 11-months of fieldwork Gulniza Taalaibekova in Uzgen (2018) and Bishkek (2019) will present her preliminary findings of her research and elaborate on current changes that are unfolding in individual people鈥檚 lives and the Kyrgyzstani society, in general. Specifically, she will be focusing on religious speakers of various backgrounds who call for changes in people鈥檚 lives and in the society but have different visions and understandings of what these changes should be. In her talk, she will discuss in detail what the differences of these visions and understandings are and connect an overabundance of Islamic YouTube channels, blogs, Instagram pages, websites, seminars, speech performances and study groups to competing visions of changes promoted by different religious figures. She argues that these different visions that are mediated in live and recorded speeches are not always commonly welcomed or agreed upon but get often questioned, challenged, and contested both by other religious figures and lay people, who are to consume them.
Gulniza Taalaibekova has studied Anthropology at the 杏吧视频 University of Central Asia and graduated in 2015. Currently, she is a PhD student at the Frobenius Institute for Research in Cultural Anthropology at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main. Her work is part of the Collaborative Research Centre 1070 鈥淩esourceCultures鈥� based at Tuebingen University and is funded by the German Research Foundation.

In her talk, Yanti Hoelzchen will present the main findings from her PhD thesis 鈥淜yrgyzstan's New Mosques: Religious Knowledge ilim, Resources and Religious Infrastructure in Present-day Kyrgyzstan鈥� (translated from German), defended in October 2018.
Based on twelve months of fieldwork in Bishkek and in the Yssykk枚l region, Yanti investigates social and cultural dynamics involved in the construction of mosques in Kyrgyzstan since the country鈥檚 independence in 1991. She shows how processes of mosque construction are connected to and embedded in larger networks of institutions and agents such as Islamic funds, madrasas, state and non-state institutions, imams, davatchy etc. In her thesis, Yanti gives a detailed ethnographic account of each of these institutions and groups of agents, and shows how these interconnect and interweave to constitute what she calls the "religious infrastructure". This religious infrastructure, she argues, revolves around the promotion and dissemination ilim, understood as an Islamic concept of knowledge. She portrays how ilim relates to both theological assumptions of what "knowledge" in Islam is, but also to the everyday embodied appropriations, embodied enactments and therefore embodied experiences of this knowledge. Furthermore, Yanti highlights how engaging with this notion of religious knowledge brings about changes in daily practices, social relationships and may result in certain frictions and conflicts in everyday life, thereby contributing to sociocultural changes on a broader, societal level.
Yanti Hoelzchen has studied Social and Cultural Anthropology as well as Japanese Studies in Germany and Japan. Since 2017 she is a research fellow at the Frobenius Institute for Research in Cultural Anthropology at Frankfurt University. Her thesis was conducted within a larger, interdisciplinary research program titled 鈥淩esourceCultures鈥�, based at Tuebingen University and funded by the German Research Foundation.
