The academic book "Soviet Atheism and Its Effects in Central Asia (1917-1939)" offers a comprehensive analysis of the impact of Soviet atheism on the societies in Central Asia during the years 1917 to 1939. The author, Ömer Çağrı Tecer, examines the political, social, and economic challenges faced by the Central Asian peoples during the Soviet era. The book aims to assess the behaviors and actions of the Central Asian states within the international system by considering both positive and negative factors stemming from the history of these regions. It argues that the current social and political actions of these states are a reflection of the historical influences that have shaped them. The analysis of the atheistic policies of the Soviet Union and their effects on Central Asian societies forms the core of this investigation.
