THE PROHIBITION OF ALCOHOL IN ISLAM: RELIGIOUS IMPERATIVES AND PRACTICES IN SEVENTEENTHTO NINETEENTH-CENTURY DAGESTAN
стр.4-25
Despite the well-known alcohol prohibition in Islam, in their everyday lives, throughout many places and times, Muslims have drunk alcohol. In this study, the religious prohibition and its practices are discussed in the context of the bicentennial history of Dagestan (since its final annexation by the Russian Empire). The article draws upon religious prescriptions in the works of the Shafi'i (al-Nawawi and others) and Hanafi (al-Samarqandi and others) jurists, comparing them with evidence described and analyzed by scholars, foreign travelers (Adam Olearius, Evliya Çelebi, J. A. Güldenstädt, etc.), as well as local theological, legal, and historical works in the Arabic language.

THE MARKET OF ISLAMIC GOODS AND SERVICES IN DAGESTAN: CONSUMPTION PRACTICES AND PUBLIC DEBATES
стр.26-49
This article deals with the functioning of the sector of Islamic goods and services in Dagestan's urban space and the popular practices of consumption. It describes and analyzes various aspects of Islamic business, including the operation of the halal market, the women's clothing sector, and advertising strategies. Special attention is given to the issue of the hijab, its symbolic meaning, and its role in women's social life. The problem of Islamic consumption is viewed through the prism of the commodification of Islam, which affects both religious practices and the local economy. An intensive appeal to Islam in the city's social and economic space is not so much a sign of Islamic radicalization as it is a choice of cultural references in the society and a quest for new behavioral patterns. The emergence of new consumer attitudes forces Dagestani society to face a problem of choice between European standards and a new identity - belonging to global Islamic civilization. The article draws upon the author's field materials from 2011 to 2015.

PRAYING MUSLIM YOUTH AS A SUBCULTURE OF KABARDINO-BALKAR SOCIETY
стр.50-71
This article examines a social group within Kabardino-Balkar society - the so-called “praying youth” that emerged during the post-Soviet religious revival. The article presents some distinctive features of this group - its members’ social base, their world outlook, and their behavioral patterns and markers. Special attention is paid to analysis of the reasons for the emergence of the religious conflict that divided society into those professing a “popular” form of Islam and those “praying,” with their fundamentalist agenda. Field materials illustrate how “folk” and/or “traditional” culture vanishes within the subculture of the “praying youth.”

ISLAMISM AND THE NEW DISINTEGRATION OF EMPIRES
стр.96-111
In this interview, Georgi Derluguian discusses the reasons for Islamism’s popularity in the context of the collapse of two great projects of the West - liberalism and communism. He pays special attention to an organizational feature of Islam that allows this religion to wage successful wars against powerful empires. People who find this ideology attractive are not “new barbarians”; on the contrary, they are modern, socially active people, whose access to social advancement has been blocked. Islamism allows both men and women to realize strategies that give them a chance to succeed in an environment that no longer provides the opportunities their parents enjoyed. At the end of the interview, Derluguian analyzes the perspectives of the so-called Islamic State, which is banned in Russia and elsewhere: he shows how this organization will inevitably be involved in the dynamics of the contemporary world system.
