This work provides an in-depth examination of the 1920 revolution in Bukhara, which marked the end of the Bukharan Emirate and the establishment of the Bukharan People’s Soviet Republic under Bolshevik influence.

The book explores how geopolitical struggles, particularly Soviet Russia’s expansionist policies, played a crucial role in shaping the course of events. It analyzes the interplay between local revolutionary movements, the role of the Red Army, and the resistance led by Emir Alim Khan and his supporters. The authors also discuss the ideological justifications behind Soviet intervention, framing the revolution in the broader context of imperialist power struggles in Central Asia.
