Vicky Davis, Central Asia in World War Two: The Impact and Legacy of Fighting for the Soviet Union (London: Bloomsbury, 2024), reviewed by Fahri Türk and Nikolina Kunić (Trakya University, Edirne)

The Second World War can be described as a great disaster that deeply affected science, art, philosophy and politics in Europe. In the post-war period, major ruptures occurred due to the suffering experienced during the war. However, another consequence of the Second World War for Europe and the rest of the world was the emergence of the Soviet Union as a super power. When it is not easy to evaluate the Soviets as the successor of the Tsarist regime, it is possible to say that the unique policies followed by this state deeply affected the Eastern European and Central Asian regions. Within this context, Vicky Davis' Central Asia in World War Two: The Impact and Legacy of Fighting for the Soviet Union reveals the reflections of Soviet policies in Central Asia during the Second World War. The book is organized into four well-structured parts, which together provide significant insights into the support of the Central Asians for Soviets and Red Army during the Second World War.

The first part of the book consists of three chapters. The first chapter, Fighting for the Soviet Union ''War in the Wind'' (pp.1-40) gives details about the merits of the population of Central Asia in the Soviet Union as well as the role of national minorities in strategic battles through the depiction of the expansion of Soviet culture and ideals.

Chapter two as well as chapter three of the first part brings testimonies and experiences of soldiers who passed through the jaws of war from secret archives that can be considered as great contributions to the academic world. The author draws attention to Stalin's strengthening of military-industrial complex in the eve of the outbreak of the war against N**i Germany. On the other hand the Soviet media did not inform Central Asians about the events of war especially in smaller cities. However during the Second Word War a huge number of Central Asian recruits served in the Red Army to defend their fatherland. Jumabek Rakhmanov is just one of the examples of fighters who left his hometown in aggravating circumstances in the Issyk-Kul province in Kyrgystan. The quantity of Central Asian fighters in the row of the Red Army was about 34 million recruits that consisted of 1.2 million Kazakhs and 1.4 million Uzbeks, Tajiks, etc.

However the recruits from the Central Asian countries had to contend with bad treatment during their duties in the Red Army. Despite the poor knowledge of the Russian language in the written and spoken sense, as well as the lack of military training, a huge number of recruits, especially from Kyrgyzstan, faced inhumane conditions, such as food poisoning and hard military training. After the capitulation of Berlin in May 1945, many soldiers, especially from the Asian part of the Soviet Union, remained in uniform and were ordered to the Far Eastern region of the country to mobilize them for the war against Japan.

The second part of the book, entitled ''The impact of war on the home front'' (pp.81-179) emphasizes the willpower of the Soviet Army for victory and not accepting anything but triumph on all fields with all possible sacrifices. There was also a positive reversal in the Soviet leader's behavior towards Muslims of the Soviet Union during the war. Consequently, Soviet leaders tried through propaganda to bring the national minorities, as well as the Slavs together to mobilize against the common enemy, N**i Germany.

In the third part entitled ''Comings and goings: The movement of displaced population'' (pp.221-273) the author stresses the measures taken by the Soviet leadership following the permanent bombings of Petrograd in 1941. For instance, Soviet leaders had to preserve the manpower of the Red Army and tried to relocate academic institutes as well as entire factories to Central Asia and the Far Eastern region of the Soviet Union. Moreover, civilians such as Jewish people were deported to the other regions of the country. Consequently, the demographic structure of Central Asia was deeply affected by this decision. This situation led to highlight anti-semitism, however many Jews survived thanks to the hospitality of the local people.

In the forth part entitled ''The Legacy of the Second World War in Central Asia“ (pp. 319-321) the author focuses on the sacrifices and efforts of the Central Asian recruits in the row of battalions led by General İvan Panfilov, Nikolai Anan, and Grigorii Konki. For instance, İvan Panfilov became a symbol of the fighting against N**is with his 28 Central Asian followers. In the post-war period Aleksandr Bek and Baurzhan Momysh-uly conducted interviews with the soldiers who fought in the row of Panfilov's battalion. Thus, it became evident that these soldiers sacrificed a lot for their Soviet fatherland.

Davis points out that the myth of Panfilov and his 28 soldiers in Kazakh and Kyrgyz schools was shown to be unfounded in the post-Soviet era. In this vein, all the monuments erected as a result of propaganda were replaced with new ones under the traditional spirit in the aftermath of the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Essentially, in Central Asia in World War Two: The Impact and Legacy of Fighting for the Soviet Union, Vicky Davis uses primary sources comprised from interviews, official documents, and various first-hand materials in the Issyk-Kul archives. Lastly, as Davis conducted interviews with local people, it renders this work valuable and significant to the readers. Consequently this leads readers to look beyond the victories, and rather focus on the sacrifices undergone by the population of Central Asian countries in favor of the Soviet fatherland during the Second World War against N**i Germany.

“The Armed Conflict of the Dniester: Three Decades Later” is the third volume in the series South-East European History, edited by Mihai Dragnea and published by Peter Lang on behalf of the Balkan History Association. Published to mark the 30th anniversary of a war whose grievances have never been satisfactorily resolved, the volume brings together an international team of experts to discuss the causes and repercussions of the military operations carried out in 1992. Against the backdrop of the collapse of the Soviet Union, the region of Transnistria—a strip of land between the Dniester river and the Ukrainian border—proclaimed independence from Moldova in 1990. In a development with notable contemporary resonances, the separatist movement was backed by Moscow, leading to intervention by the Russian Fourteenth Army alongside paramilitary formations recruited from former Soviet states. The subsequent conflict with Moldovan forces was brought to an end by the 1992 ceasefire, but few were satisfied with the arrangement, and the political status of Transnistria has been unresolved ever since.

This book—the result of collaboration between the Laboratory for Transnistrian Conflict Analysis (Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu, Romania) and the Balkan History Association—presents a wide range of voices, and seeks to be non-partisan in its approach. Among the issues it tackles are the political and geopolitical causes of the war; the documentary sources and their analysis; quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the combat forces, their levels of training and professionalism, command structures, tactics, weapons, and equipment; the organization and actions of the paramilitaries; the interests of Russia, Moldova, and other international actors, and their political and military actions; and finally the political and patriotic capital generated by the war. The book will be useful to scholars and students, but also to all those involved in the observation and regulation of the Dniester conflict. Finally, anyone interested in the evolution and status of ‘frozen conflicts’—particularly in light of recent events in Ukraine—will find much of interest.
