Considered the best moderated forum for Tajikistan studies, Westerners make up the majority participants. As the only mailing list dedicated entirely to news about Azerbaijan and related topics, this open, currently moderated mailing list uses English as its official language but also handles Azerbaijani and Russian. A sampling of the topics covered include business, education, culture, refugees, sports, and travel. This list primarily covers Uzbekistan, Kazakstan, Kirghizstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. An archive is also available at this site.
Many Kazakhstan natives are contributers.
The online edition is made possible by with the assistance of the Irex-sponsored Kyrgyzstan Freenet. This weekly e-mail newsletter contains news and analysis on today's Russia, including political, economic, social, military, and foreign policy issues. Skip Evans of New York City and previously of Atlanta, Georgia is introducing our friends from Russia to life in America. Please write to us with your comments and suggestions.
