This article examines the colonization policies of the Russian Empire in Turkestan and their impact on the region’s peoples, identity, and intellectual resistance. By analyzing the political, economic, and cultural implications of imperial control, the article sheds light on how Turkestan’s societies were systematically marginalized and how local intellectuals responded through educational, spiritual, and political movements. The work also explores the legacy of imperialism in shaping modern Central Asian identities.References
