Presenting case studies from Tashkent, Yerevan, Gumri, St Petersburg, Tbilisi, Baku, and Osh, this book examines the way that different groups, from Christians and Muslims to ardent reformers and Soviet apologists, assign meaning to public spaces and deploy them in attempts to construct the way the history of their cities is understood.
