Today two different forms of Islam are competing for primacy in the Russian Caucasus. The first of these is the ‘old’, traditional, everyday Islam. This form has already exhausted its potential for reform and represents the remains of the first wave of the region's Islamisation. This first wave...

520 |a Today two different forms of Islam are competing for primacy in the Russian Caucasus. The first of these is the ‘old’, traditional, everyday Islam. This form has already exhausted its potential for reform and represents the remains of the first wave of the region's Islamisation. This first wave, which swept across the world in times of slave ownership and feudalism (seventh to eighteenth centuries), began its decline during the Enlightenment and with the birth of capitalism, and today this form of Islam is largely represented at the rural, local level. The second form of Islam is more common in urban environments, in the Caucasus as well as in other Russian cities. This is an Islam of a renovationist, modernising, reformist wave, and since the 1980s has been growing steadily larger. It is an Islam which marks the birth of a new era - an era of information technology, transnational economics and an all-pervasive, interconnected world. It is this that explains why today it is the cities that have become the centres of Islamic revival and Islamic mission, despite the fact that it was on a local rural community level that Islam survived in the years of Soviet oppression.
