It is moving to be an invited speaker at this event. #EASR2023 was planned in Kyjv, instead there will be an online conference on February 24-25. I think there is no better way to honour the unbelievable work my Ukrainian colleagues have done during this horrible year.

I’d like to put together an interdisciplinary panel on Russian migration after the invasion for @aseeestudies — I know I’ve seen other folks working on this here but my memory is awful. Pls let me know if interested in joining or pass this to others who might be.

Congratulations to Dr. Zhanar Sekerbayeva (Tsukuba Ph.D. alumna 2020) on transforming her Ph.D. thesis into a book. Understanding Actors and Processes in Shaping Transgender Subjectivities (along with @SyinatS 's Nomadity of Being) is a breakthrough in studies of gender in CA!

Islamic manuscripts' lovers and Central Asian history fans! There is a treasure trove of primary sources hidden in plain sight at the British Library. Not sure it has something to do with the Khoqand Khanate, but you can find some rare gems therein... eap.bl.uk/project/EAP1326/se…
