Some Aspects of Central Asian Studies in France

French Central Asian studies, rooted in the 18th century, have significantly advanced the understanding of the region's history and culture through archaeological excavations at key sites like Sarazm, Afrasiab, and Ulug Depe. This long-standing tradition involves multidisciplinary research conducted by institutions such as the College de France, INALCO, CNRS, and IFEAC, focusing on archaeology, anthropology, linguistics, and more. Since 1990, there has been a steady development of regional studies in France, covering historical, cultural, and socio-political dynamics across Central Asia.
