The Dark Myths of Decommunization in Central Asia
Original: The Dark Myths of Decommunization. Neoliberalism, religious extremism, and medieval archaism are infiltrating the breach
An opinion piece argues that decommunization in Central Asian countries has opened the way for neoliberalism, religious extremism, and medieval archaism to spread, blaming anti-Soviet ideologists for what it calls the 'dark myths' surrounding the process. The piece frames the removal of Soviet legacy not as democratic renewal but as an ideological breach exploited by reactionary forces across the region.
Why now: The argument is circulating among left-wing online communities engaged in debates over the legacy of the Soviet Union and post-Soviet politics.
