- Abstract
-
In the 19th century, Russian merchants entered Turkestan, gradually dominating its markets and monopolizing trade. Local peasants and artisans produced cotton, silk, and other goods, while Russian imports and industrial expansion disrupted household industries. Zakat and other levies enriched the Russian state, and railways strengthened both economic and political control. Tashkent became the main trade center, distributing goods regionally. Factories and workshops, including silk-reeling and tanning plants, were established under Russian and local supervision. Agriculture improved with better crop varieties, viticulture, and artisanal crafts persisted. By the early 20th century, Turkestan served as a raw material base and a profitable market for the Russian Empire.
