		Tajikistan’s relationship with political Islam is perhaps the most volatile, diverse, and complicated in Central Asia.

		It is therefore more important in Tajikistan than anywhere else in Central Asia to keep the political space as open as possible, and convince those that might be otherwise persuaded that there is a viable alternative in a functioning, moderate state.
