DESCRIPTION:Part of our Religion and Politics Series. Since the fall of the
  Soviet Union\, Sufi groups in Tajikistan have faced significant changes\,
  from growth and public celebration to repression by governing elites. In 
 this talk\, Benjamin Gatling draws on ethnographic fieldwork to examine ho
 w Tajikistan’s Sufis have adapted since 2010. He will discuss how murids
  cope with missing pirs\, closed teaching circles\, and limited ritual opp
 ortunities\, while highlighting resilient expressions of Sufi piety\, such
  as pilgrimage practices and narratives.\n\nCONTACT: kd.thompson@wisc.edu\
