About this listen

In the early 20th century, a movement of Muslim intellectuals known as the Jadids emerged in Central Asia, seeking to modernize education, culture, and politics. This episode focuses on Uzbekistan's Jadid leaders, like Mahmudhoja Behbudiy and Abdulla Avloniy, who founded new-method schools, published newspapers, and advocated for social reform under Russian imperial rule. We explore their struggle against conservative clergy, their brief alliance with the Bolsheviks, and their tragic fate under Stalin's purges. The episode reveals how the Jadids envisioned a modern, independent Turkestan and why their legacy remains contested in Uzbekistan today. Rich with details on their writings, schools, and political organizations, this conversation sheds light on a pivotal but often overlooked chapter in Central Asian history.
