| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed at analyzing the inconsistency existed between the development projects initiated by various entities such as ministries, entrepreneurs and colonial authorities of the Russian Empire, and the local practices of land use and water management in the southern Central Asian oases under the Imperial Russian rule (1867-1917). This study argued that the large-scale irrigation projects represented by the diversion of the Amu River to the Caspian Sea were given precedence over the land improvement project fitted with the environment of each oases area, decision making process of which was heavily effected by the external factor of Imperial colonial rule in Central Asia - "Great Game", that is a rally with Britain over Central Asia and its neighboring regions.
