Cariou, Alain. "Le jardin saccagé : anciennes oasis et nouvelles campagnes d'Ouzbékistan." Paris 4, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002PA040169.
Full textAs a transition land between the vast steppes and the roof of the world of Pamir, Uzbekistan is also an area of contact between the great civilizations of the Ancient World: Persian, Turkish Chinese, Mediterranean, Indian and Slavic. From this geographical configuration, at the crossing point of the main cultural regions, the country inherited an brillant oasis-based agriculture system. In the light of past, this research shows the original features of traditional countryside in Uzbekistan and sketch a geography of today's rural areas. It also shows how and why the old oasis garden, long preserved from the ordeal of time and men, was ravaged by the Soviet agricultural policy. From titanic rural management plans, millions of hectares of collectivized lands were conquered until depletion of rivers and of Aral. Paradoxically, among the group of the ex-Soviet republics, present-day Uzbekistan distinguishes itself by the preservation of an agrarian system inherited from the socialist experience. The post-Soviet period is thus interpreted more in term of continuity rather than rupture. Nevertheless, a dim agricultural renewal is slowly rising, taking up again traditional practices

Full textThis study analyses the world of music composition in Uzbekistan within the sphere of “contemporary music”, a category of music that was introduced with a new meaning in Uzbekistan after the end of the Soviet Union. My observations are centered on two institutions in Tashkent that have established and illustrated “contemporary music” since the 1990’s: the International Festival of Contemporary Music Ilkhom-XX (1996-2006); and the Omnibus Ensemble for contemporary music, created in 2004. The political, economic, social and aesthetic ruptures that affected post-Soviet societies have not spared the domain of music. The arrival of contemporary music perceived as western music, the performance of a repertoire which was rarely played and ignored by the concert public in Tashkent, and the beginning of artistic exchanges with Europe and the United States all contributed to the impression of a clash, which accompanied the demotion of composers who had begun their careers during the Soviet era. The authority of judgment and financial resources, which came from the Uzbek and Soviet government during the Soviet era, are now mostly in the hands of foreign institutions. This small-scale analysis and observation of rehearsals and concerts highlights how the actors of the contemporary music scene in Tashkent are creating a network based on the intellectual and artistic milieus inherited from the end of the Soviet era. Further, the contemporary music scene in Uzbekistan represents the entire fabrication of a music category and the mirror games at play between western orientalism and the perception of the West in Uzbekistan
Hohmann, Sophie. "Santé et changement social en Ouzbékistan : recours thérapeutiques et politiques sanitaires." Paris, EHESS, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2006EHES0074.
Full textThis work aims at displaying continuities and discontinuities in terms of public health occuring in Uzbekistan, before and after the soviet period. A first link is established with ancestral health systems (Greek, Persian and Chinese) in the pre-colonial period. Modern medecine in brought in with the Russian colonization at the end of the 19th century. Then the creation of the Soviet Union brings a uniform system of public health, wich however will reveal its limits. The analysis of the contemporary period focuses on the relationships between traditional and modern medecine, using both in-depth knowledge and interviews of health actors and quantitative data. It shows the complex evolutions occuring in this period of intense social and political changes, symbolized by the recent legitimization of the physicians-tabibs

Full textIn Uzbekistan, in Tashkent and Bukhara, the pre-colonial neighborhoods or Eski Chahar (“old town” in Uzbek) are modified, rehabilitated. Rehabilitation is a complex process, which aims at giving value to the built heritage. It is based on some values, at times complementary or contradictory, dictated by the Government, then accepted or rejected by the private parties. What are the values lauded by the Uzbek public sector, by the inhabitants and the international organisations ? How do these different parties interact ? How are their rehabilitation projects deployed ? Thanks to the crosschecking of rare existing documents and thanks to the creation of new references (field observation, interviews, enquiry, and cartography), it is possible to establish that Eski Chahar are the palimpsests of a disarticulated power relationship. The public parties impose a rehabilitated city following ideological or economic values. The inhabitants look for comfort, modernity, foreign currency and social prestige. Only few people and international organisations try to take into account the historic value of the built heritage, but their political, technical and financial methods are not enough. Eski Chahar is then a confrontation ground for many logics and for atomised agents, in a city where rehabilitations show their limits : the dysfunctions persist and the historical value of the pre-colonial neighborhoods is only considered as secondary by powerless agents

Full textAt present, many Uzbeks leave Uzbekistan temporarily and go abroad to work there and, so they hope, take advantage of salaries more attractive than those in their country of origin. Since 1991, as regards this massive population movement, three destinations have been concerned : Moscow (Russia), Seoul (South Korea), and New York (United States). An economical migration for improved living standards is at stake, rather than a migration for survival. These departures involve the families, both financially and socially through their connections. Strategies to by-pass the migration policies are worked out to leave uzbekistan. Many migrants take up illegal residence in the host countries. That migratory period is regarded as a necessary interlude to grow richer before coming back home. In the three host towns, the migrants are brought to wonder about their own identity, their “uzbekity”. From a theoretical point of view, this migration arises as a rite of transition individually contemplated as a passage towards a new status, the one of “new uzbek”. From a state point of view, that emigration means a demographic haemorrhage hard to control, but at the same time is an important financial godsend. The four involved states are trying to control that flow through migratory policies and their implementations. Cultural, social, economical and political effects are in close correlation with the appearance of these “new Uzbeks” who grew richer abroad, and that makes it possible to redefine the issues of identity and power in the post-soviet Uzbekistan.

Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris 6, 2015. https://accesdistant.sorbonne-universite.fr/login?url=https://theses-intra.sorbonne-universite.fr/2015PA066198.pdf.
Full textThe main aim of this thesis is reconstructing the tectono-stratigraphic evolution of the northern margin of the Amu-Darya basin and northwestern part of the Afghan-Tajik basin in southwestern Uzbekistan (Bukhara-Khiva and Southwestern Gissar regions). We have used a complex of geological-geophysical data for the construction of 8 geological-geophysical sections. Two lines are parallel to the Bukhara-Khiva region, while other six cross it from the north to the south. The principal features of the pre-Mesozoic and Mesozoic surfaces were observed. The main faults, highs and lows were also determined.Another part of the study is the tectonic subsidence analysis, performed through 18 wells, chosen for the area. The comparison of the tectonic subsidence rates shows an active tectonic subsidence during the late Early Jurassic to Middle Jurassic, and minor events during the Early Cretaceous and the Turonian.The fault tectonic analysis, including fieldworks, has been performed in the Southwestern Gissar Mountains. We mainly analysed the faults population in the Middle-Late Jurassic carbonates. The results indicate that normal faulting developed during the Middle-Late Jurassic associated with the NE-trending extension that developed in the northern margin of the Amu-Darya basin.All of the results show that the Amu-Darya basin evolution is strongly connected to the Mesozoic development of the northward subduction of the Tethys Oceanic domain beneath the Central Asia margin. During the Jurassic, the northward subduction of the Neo-Tethys beneath Eurasia generated extensional stress fields in the overriding Turan platform which originated the Amu-Darya basin

Full textSince their political sovereignty, Central Asia's Muslim states know a renewal of interest for Islam. In Uzbekistan, religion doesn't rules all the fiels of the society. Political and strategic evolutions in Central Asia area (ethnic nationalism, political sovereignty, Islamic fundamentalism, and regionalism) affect forms of Islam in Uzbekistan. The revival of Islam is not only a sign of piety or devotion. Also, the revival of Islam shows that Uzbek society wants to discover his own culture. The connections between the Uzbek and Islam are not only devoted connections. The Uzbek consider Islam beyond the limits of the dogma. Thus, Islam becomes secular in the Uzbek society. However, rural masses keep a deep piety, and islamic clergy stays traditionalist. Regarding ethic, the Uzbek consider society must be in harmony with the moral values of Islam. Regarding religion, they stay traditionalist. In Uzbekistan, Islam doesn't affects by the spirit of religious reform and moral progress. However, regarding politic, the Uzbek consider that religion and State power must be disconnected. The Uzbek reject islamic republic and islamic law. In addition, in Central Asia, the context of political burden, socio-economic depression, spiritual and cultural search (dictatorship, taliban, fundamentalism, Uzbek islamic opposition, IMU, strategic ambitions of Pakistan where madrasa support the diffusion of fundamentalism), and economic and cultural globalisation (liberalism, moderate and secular Turkish Islam, Saudi orthodoxy and fundamentalism) generate change of Islam in area. News muslim and occidental models compete with traditionalism of Islam in Central Asia, and lead to a series of religious mutations which give to Islam various identities

Full textThe stake in this phD is to make a contribution to the protection of this part of the Cultural Heritage which Unesco appoints under the name of "Documentary Sources of Humanity". Before anything, let us specify that the research was developed from two major sites of the cultural heritage, registered on the UNESCO world Heritage List. The investigation concerns the preservation of a composite material of the past, the real "red thread" of our approach, architecture glazed ceramic. The work contains two parts : The first one concerns the re-creation of a metallic luster glazed ceramic, ceramic technique of which aimed at associating, during the same firing, on the same tile, metallic reflections of various colors, as it is the case for the chosen "reference": the metallic luster tiles of the mihrab of the Big Mosque Sidi Oqba in Kairouan (862-863 A. D. , Tunisia). The know-how to be preserved is exceptional and corresponds to one of the most complex and most brilliant inventions of medieval Islam. The second considers the problem of the preservation of a site threatened by the current climate change: 600 m2 of the glazed ceramic pavement of the ponds of Ak Saray, Timour palace, in Shahrisabz, near Samarcande in Uzbekistan, built between 1378 and 1405 A. D. The instruction of the conservation report, conveniently supported by the General Council of Dordogne and Unesco is about to be transformed into a program which will extend over three years. It already, gave the construction of a scientific data base, expertise and the creation of a prototype of "virtual museum" of the Timurid Culture (www. Culture-timouride. Com)

Full textThis transdisciplinary study including sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy, chemostratigraphy, and organic and inorganic geochemistry examines the Middle-Upper Jurassic carbonates series located in the southwestern Gissar range. These carbonates, also known as the Kugitang series, represent the most complete outcrop of the northern margin of the Amu-Darya Basin, a gas-producing province of Central Asia. Carbonate production begins in the late Early Callovian during a regional slowing of the tectonic subsidence, coeval with a climate warming. A major change in the carbonate production and platform configuration is recorded at the end of the Callovian: (i) a carbonate ramp with a well-contrasted proximal-distal gradient develops during the Lower to Middle or Upper Callovian. It is overlain by (ii) a vast low energy lagoon dominated by peritidal facies, probably protected by large reefs, during the Lower and Middle Oxfordian. The stratigraphic surface separating the two depositional sequences is associated with a hiatus (Upper Callovian-Lower Oxfordian) and interpreted as a regional exposure surface recording a sea-level drop caused by tectonics and/or climate. During the Middle Oxfordian, one or several intrashelf basins develop southwestwards of the studied carbonate platform. Laminated and nodular carbonates rich in organic matter predominate in these basins. They are interpreted to have formed through the mineralization of microbial mats colonizing the stratified, slightly hypersaline, anoxic to dysoxic basin floor. Large scale reefs may have favored the isolation of these basins. These deposits record the initiation of the tectonic isolation of the Amu Darya Basin, which culminates with the progradation of a large-scale sabkha and the deposition of a thick anhydrite and salt series. The comparison of stratigraphic series highlights common events in several basins of the northern Tethyan margin, but also with the Arabian Plate: initiation of the carbonate platform, carbon isotope excursions, age and depositional conditions of organic-matter rich rocks, etc. The petrography and geochemistry of carbonates reveal a complex diagenetic history. Some facies are strongly controlled by the sedimentary fabric. The diagenetic succession is tentatively linked with the stratigraphy and the subsidence history. Following deposition, the Kugitang series was buried at more than 2 km. Some cements are interpreted to have formed through the circulation of hot fluids in the rocks during the mesogenesis and possibly due to thermochemical sulfate reduction, especially in the Callovian Sequence. Finally, the high-resolution stratigraphy established in this study is used to help improving the prediction of carbonate reservoirs in the subsurface Amu Darya Basin

Full textBased on three years of ethnographic research in a Samarkand neighborhood, this study explores the grounds for and the use of the sense of belonging to a local community. Indeed, since the collapse of the Soviet Union, independent Uzbekistan founds its legitimacy on the assertion of a particular ethos supposedly embodied in local communities. Yet their centrality seems, at first, weakened by their institutionalization and by the rapid development of international migrations. However, various hypotheses suggest that the feeling of belonging is less grounded in a shared past than in a system of values allegedly expressed in community practices, continuously reactivated through neighborhood and kinship ties. Discourses reveal that participation in these practices is diversely challenged depending on whether they are prescribed by the State or recommended by the community. The emphasis on commensality enables us to perceive the consubstantiality of the members of the community. Moreover, agnatic descent and patrivirilocality strengthen the ideological base of imaginary autochthony. Against this background of strong agnatic ideology, while men and women socialize in separate spheres, cognate ties maintain their significance. Finally, self-accomplishment occurs through the organization of rituals, combined with ostentatious and costly ceremonies, often financed by migrations. The pomp of these ceremonies, manifest through the gathering of many people, is at the root of individual prestige while the flow of gifts, thought of as the repayment of an original debt, enables the reproduction of the community

It seeks to address the paradox between the growing mobilization of the civil society formula and the apparent consolidation of authoritarian systems it aimed at transforming yet. Consequently, our thesis aims at understanding the transformations of the field of international democracy promotion: what are the coherence and effectiveness of the actual implementation of civil society? It includes three chapters analyzing the appearance of civil society on the international stage, its institutionnalization within international governmental and non-governmental actors and the political rationality that the formula condenses and articulates in Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Burma

Thesis, Bordeaux 1, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010BOR14111/document.
Full textSedimentation processes in man-made water reservoirs reduce their main asset: the volume storage capacity. This raises engineering, environmental and economic issues for the communities around the world and in particular for the areas affected by strong water deficit. Because of Uzbekistan’s arid climatic conditions and uneven spatial and temporal water resources distribution, responsive and innovative water availability assessment surveys of all major water reservoirs are required. Bathymetric survey is a traditional method that is carried out for the estimation of reservoir volumes and surface areas for the corresponding reservoir stages in order to assess the water availability. Volume and surface area differences derived from multiple surveys of a reservoir provide storage loss estimates over time due to sedimentation. However, two main factors such as intensive field data measurement and post data-processing often limit the frequency of these surveys. Alternatively, innovative depth measurement technologies coupled with contouring and surface mapping programs provide automated reservoir volume and surface area calculations. This significantly reduces time, work load and financial burdens for reservoir sedimentation projects. This study deals with the use of a geostatistical approach to assess the reservoir sedimentation in the Akdarya reservoir in Uzbekistan. Geostatistical approach includes (semi-) variogram analysis and interpolation (kriging and simulations (turning bands)) techniques predicting values at unsampled locations for generating digital bathymetric surface models of reservoir bottom conditions in order to calculate volume and surface area at given water elevation. Simulation enables to have range of reservoir volumes and surface areas with the same probability in comparison to the kriging and traditional methods. This gives a real estimation of the water resource availability for operators and managers to sustainably manage natural resources and hydraulic infrastructure

Full textLn the last couple of years, central Asia has progressively gained visibility in the field of sport tourism operated by French tour-operators. The collapse of the US SR has permitted to Central Asian republics to take control oftheir destiny. With this in mind, tourism appears as an economic growth vector whose importance ca vary from one country to another. Using P. Bourdieu's theoretical approach, the objective ofthis research study is to describe the organization and structure of the field of sport tourism in four of the ex-Soviet Union republics, ail currently experiencing a transition in their social model, while taking into account their specific history. This thesis sheds light on the way each ofthese countries have progressively developed and organized, to a certain extent, the field of sport tourism. Specifically, this research addresses how the establishment and revamping of governmental institutions as weil the emergence of tour operators have played an important role in the buildup ofthis field. The study has revealed the existence of common characteristics in the organization, structure and behavior of these four countries as weil as differences. These differences explain the degree t( which these countries are found to be appealing by French companies specialized in outdoor adventure tourism. While these four republics endeavor independance and an identity of their own, both manifested in their relative field of sport tourism, their history and shared geography have left importar imbalances (touristic resources and infrastructure) which could validate the existence of global sport tourism in this region of the world

Full textBased on a thorough inquiry of the great Chaghatay poet 'AIî Shîr Nawâ'î(1441-1501)'s Ḵẖamsa, the present work focuses on the evolution of the imitation practices during the reign of Husayn Bayqara (1469-1470 and 1470-1506), an era of time called the period of "the Last Timurids". The different academic trends which have approached Nawâ'î's figure, a poet whose corpus is composed mostly of the rewritings of the great Persian writers' works, are firstly examined. Since these various studies proved to be reluctan to deal with the specificities of a phenomenon such as the rewriting, the matter is tackled with researches carried out in the fields of architecture, miniature and literature in Herat at the end of the 15th century. Major shifts in the imitation process that shaped the aesthetics of the period emerge out of these studies. The comparison between the Chaghatay Khamsa and its different Persian models (Nizâmî, Khusrau Dihlaw and Jâmî's masnawî) allows to show that not only Nawâ'î's five poems are rather a re-creation than a blind copy, but also highlights the fact that the Chaghatay pentalogy crystallizes these shifts, for timuridization, standardization and sufization lie at the foundation of this poetic endeavor. It is therefore a new understanding of the Chaghatay polygraph's works which is proposed, as well as a privileged access to the cultural history of this region and this period for which Nawâ'î represents one of the most singular embodiments
