Dilnoza Duturaeva is a historian of Central Asia and China at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in Paris and the National Center of Archaeology of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan. She graduated from Tashkent State Institute of Oriental Studies in 2004, earned her MA from the same institution in 2006, and obtained a PhD in History from the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan in 2011. In the same year, she joined the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan as a Senior Research Fellow. She also pursued doctoral research at the University of Halle-Wittenberg (2008-2009) and the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2010) and held postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Nanjing (2012-2013) and the University of Bonn (2015-2018). Since 2020 she has been working in Paris on a research project funded by the German Research Foundation.

The talk will introduce her recently published book (Brill, 2022) which reconsiders the diplomacy, trade, and geography of transcontinental networks between Central Asia and China from the 10th to the 12th centuries and challenges the concept of “the Silk Road crisis” in the period between the fall of the Tang Dynasty and the rise of the Mongols. In this talk, the author explores commodity and exchange in the Qarakhanid world and highlights the Qarakhanid commercial activities along and beyond the Silk Roads.

This talk is part of the King's Silk Roads series.
