| Summary/Abstract |
RECENTLY, the United States has been demonstrating much more activity and much more interest in Central Asia. When analyzing what was said and is said about this region in the United States we should bear in mind that the country had no school of Central Asian studies, the subject being discussed by Orientalists, former Sovietologists and political scientists at large. Each defended his own approach which made American regional politics highly specific, prone to excesses and, therefore, highly varied and inclined to go to extreme (up to and including politically incorrect) variants.
