Viac o knihe

The book explores the implications of demographic transitions in Muslim societies, focusing on the "youth bulge" phenomenon and its potential effects on conflict and development. Using Tajikistan as a case study, it examines the interplay between demographic shifts and political dynamics in a post-Soviet context marked by civil war. Sophie Roche employs a social anthropological lens to offer fresh insights into how societies can leverage their youth population for social and technological advancements, challenging conventional narratives about demographic change.
