Rezension zu „For Prophet and Tsar: Islam and Empire in Russia and Central Asia “
"For Prophet and Tsar is an original and revelatory book. Clearly written and well researched, it sheds new light on the complex interplay between the imperial state and its Muslim subjects in a way that may illuminate contemporary debates about how to secure the allegiances of Muslim populations in modern Western states." - Orlando Figes, New York Review of Books "Crews provides an important corrective to the usual understanding of Russia's imperial rule over its Muslim peoples... With this rich and subtle book, Crews forces us to rethink our current Manichean division of the world into us and them." - Ronald Grigor Suny, Moscow Times "[An] original and insightful book... Crews's research, much of it conducted in the newly accessible archives of provincial Russian places such as Ufa and Kazan, is of huge relevance to the present day." - The Economist"
