While intimately tied to the Central Asian landscape, the Jews of Bukhara have also maintained deep connections to the wider Jewish world. As the community began to disperse after the fall of the Soviet Union, Alanna E. Cooper traveled to Uzbekistan to document Jewish life before it disappeared. Drawing on ethnographic research there as well as among immigrants to the US and Israel, Cooper tells an intimate and personal story about what it means to be. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Jews|zUzbekistan|zBukhoro viloi︠a︡ti|xHistory. 650 0 Jews|zUzbekistan|zBukhoro viloi︠a︡ti|xSocial conditions. 650 0 Jews, Bukharan. 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xAnthropology|xCultural.|2bisacsh 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xDiscrimination & Race Relations.|2bisacsh 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xEthnic Studies|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xMinority Studies.|2bisacsh 650 7 RELIGION|xJudaism|xHistory.|2bisacsh 650 7 Ethnic relations.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00916005 650 7 Jews.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00983135 650 7 Jews, Bukharan.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00983424 650 7 Jews|xSocial conditions.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00983360 651 0 Bukhoro viloi︠a︡ti (Uzbekistan)|xEthnic relations. 651 7 Uzbekistan|zBukhoro viloi︠a︡ti.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01299500 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9780253006431|z0253006430|w(DLC) 2012024374 914 ocn822992156 994 93|bGTK
