Central Asia Inside/Out

Central Asia Inside/Out

by

This podcast highlights the research of the Central European University students on historical, cultural, socio-political issues related to Central Asia. The project is based on two perspectives that stem from the backgrounds of two hosts: Elmira from Kazakhstan and Grace from the US. This ‘inside/out’ perspective will shed light on persistent assumptions about this region. Episodes will investigate different research approaches from the perspectives of local and external scholars, traditions, and theories. Season 1 was recorded during the spring of the academic year 2020-2021 Music credits: Raindrops from MusicFox https://www.musicfox.com/en/info/free-music.php
