DOI: The Idea of Religious Tolerance in Central Asian Thought
Abstract
The article analyses the transformation of religious tolerance in Central Asia during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Early twentieth-century Jadid thought is treated as an intellectual background rather than the main subject. The analysis focuses on Soviet atheist secularism, the post-Soviet reinterpretation of freedom of conscience, and contemporary interconfessional relations. Drawing mainly on Uzbek, Kazakhstani and Russian scholarship, the study distinguishes enlightenment-oriented, ideological-secular and civic-secular forms of tolerance. Religious tolerance is interpreted as recognition of legitimate worldview difference, human dignity and dialogue within a shared civic space.
