The repressive policy of the Soviet empire, particularly during the Great Terror, destroyed a whole pleiad of Uzbek intellectuals who fought for national
independence. This presentation focuses not only on the fate of Uzbeks, but also on the other national minorities of the Uzbek SSR: Kazakhs, Tajiks, Jews, Azerbaijanis, Iranians, Kara-Kalpak, Tatars, Russians and others. The new and stunning source material is based on archival documents from the State Security Service of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
