Rakhimov, 49, one of the organizers of the anniversary, which falls on September 9, was shot dead by unidentified assailants as he was leaving his house in the capital of Dushanbe early Saturday. The Tajik government described it as a "terrorist act" designed to destabilize the country.

About Pravda.RU:Science and Culture:More in detail Russian culture festival put off in Tajikistan A Russian culture festival on Tajik territory has been put off because of a local typhoid-fever outbreak, RIA Novosti learned at the Russian Embassy to Dushanbe today. According to Embassy officials, this decision was, among other things, motivated by a seasonal typhoid-fever outbreak in Dushanbe. Local hospitals have already received more than 750 people suspected of having typhoid fever; one person is reported dead. According to experts, the current typhoid-fever outbreak in the Tajik capital was caused by substandard drinking water. Recent rains and failure to abide by elementary hygiene requirements mostly served to aggravate drinking-water quality. The Russian delegation, which was to be headed by Deputy Culture Minister Denis Molchanov, comprised more than 50 people, i.e. Bolshoi Theater performers, the Russkiye Sezony (Russian Seasons) dance ensemble, the Premyer Ministr pop-music group, several folk-art groups, theater and movie actors, as well as leading Russian film directors.

CHAPTER 6 THE CRISIS IN EDUCATION, SCIENCE, AND CULTURE Education in pre-independence Tajikistan was conducted as a part of the system of education of the USSR with the Republic's Ministry of Education subordinate to the Ministry of Education of the USSR. In the regions and oblasts of the Republic and the districts of the city of Dushanbe, there existed lower departments of education that implemented state policy. By 1960, illiteracy in the republic was almost eliminated. 6.1 PRESCHOOL Civil war (1991-1992) and independence weakened the links between local structures and the administrative center. As a result, many problems concerning preschool education and the preparation of curricula will have to be solved at the local level. Because of military activities, many kindergartens and day nurseries were ruined. Over 152 preschools were closed out of a total of 960 establishments. Financial difficulties and the lack of construction materials have inhibited the repair and operation of preschools. Increasing infant mortality and the migration of populations has also affected the number of children in preschool establishments. Enrollment in 1994 was 24% less than that of 1990 as shown in Table 6.1.1. The parents' fee for preschool tuition remains very low, constituting 8 to 9% of the sum expended for the support of one child. In kindergarten sanitariums for the sick, children receive full state support, being exempt from all fees. The low level of fees in preschools is due to the help of trade-unions which subsidize the establishments. Since the civil war and ensuing economic problems, many preschools have been receiving humanitarian aid from international organizations, and from local commercial enterprises and banks who give financial help when they have the means.

Tajikistan Time and Date Tajikistan History Back to Top Tajikistan, Literally the "Land of the Tajiks" has ancient cultural roots. The people now known as the Tajiks are the Persian speakers of Central Asia, some of whose ancestors colonised Central Asia at the dawn of history. contempt the long heritage of its indigenous peoples, Tajikistan has existed as a state only since the Soviet Union decreed its existence in 1924. The creation of modern Tajikistan was part of the Soviet policy of giving the outward trappings of political representation to minority nationalities in Central Asia while simultaneously reorganizing or fragmenting communities and political entities. freedom came to Tajikistan with the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991. The first few years after that were a time of great hardship. Some of the new republic's problems-including the breakdown of the old system of interdependent economic relationships upon which the Soviet republics had relied, and the stress of movement toward participation in the world market-were common among the Soviet successor states. The pain of economic decline was compounded in Tajikistan by a bloody and protracted civil conflict over whether the nation would perpetuate a system of monopoly rule by a narrow elite like the one that governed in the Soviet era, or establish a reformist, more democratic regime. The fight peaked as an outright war in the second half of 1992, and smaller-scale conflict continued into the mid-1990s. The victors preserved a repressive system of rule, and the lingering effects of the conflict contributed to the further worsening of living conditions.

Photo Gallery PGR in Tajikistan Institutions PGR Unit Members Status of Database Collection Missions ... PGR Projects The most revered figures from Tajikistan's Persian past are the 10th century philosopher-scientist Abu Ali ibn Sina , author of two of the most important books in the history of medicine, and the poet Rudaki, court poet in Bukhara in the time of the Samanids. Tajiks also venerate Firdausi, a poet and composer of the Shah-nameh (Book of Kings), the Persian national epic, and Omar Khayyam, of Rubaiyat fame, both born in present-day Iran but at a time when it was in the same empire as Tajikistan. When Tajikistan was hived off from Uzbekistan in 1929, the new nation-state was forced to leave behind its cultural baggage. t a j i k i s t a n The new Soviet order set about providing a replacement pantheon of arts, introducing modern drama, opera and ballet. The policy paid early dividends and the 1940s are considered a golden era of Tajik theatre. A kind of Soviet fame came to some Tajik novelists and poets, such as Mirzo Tursunzade and Sadriddin Ayni, the latter now remembered more as a deconstructor of national culture because of his campaign to eliminate all Arabic expressions and references to Islam from the Tajik tongue. Since independence there has been something of a cultural revival in an attempt to foster a sense of national identity. The succuss of Tajikistan's most popular living writer, Taimur Zulfikarov, is attributed to his abiity to mimic the ancient Persian style of writing and, in doing so, to appeal to nationalist sentiments.

The Languages of Tajikistan in Perspective by Iraj Bashiri Geography of Tajikistan Tajikistan stretches from the west to the east between Uzbekistan and China. In the north it includes the western part of the Ferghana valley. This mostly Uzbek-speaking area, centered on the city of Khujand, was augmented in 1929; it provides the Tajiks access to the Syr Darya. The Turan lowlands are to the south of Ferghana. Irrigated by the Panj, Vakhsh, and the Kafarnihan, the lowlands are the heart of southern Tajikistan's present-day urban culture as well as the fulcrum of its government, industry, and commerce. To the east of the lowlands are the Pamirs, the Badakhshan, and the Hindu Kush mountains. Three Fateful Events Three major events have shaped the linguistic and cultural map of Tajikistan. The Battle of Talas fought between the Muslim forces and the Chinese on the Talas river, in present-day Kyrgyzstan, in 751 AD, a treaty signed by the Russian Emperor and the British Crown in 1873, concluding the well-know "Great Game," and the 1989 legislation that made Tajiki the official language of the republic. In ancient times, the territory of present-day Central Asia was inhabited by Indo-European tribes. Primarily Iranian-speaking, these tribes occupied not only the Samarqand and Panjekent regions but also the areas to the east as far as Turfan and Loulan (Grousset, 1970). In subsequent centuries, Arab, Turkish, and Mongol invaders redefined the socio-political and economic dynamics of Central Asia and redesigned its religious, ethnic, and linguistic map. Even though the Muslims' progress in the east was checked by the Chinese, the Arab aristocracy continued to rule the area until the tenth century. In the process of settling down, the Arabs replaced the Zoroastrian faith with Islam and the Sughdian language with Arabic.
