At the beginning of
the twenty-first century, Dushanbe, along with Tajikistan, continued to
struggle from the after-effects of Soviet occupation and civil war. Tajikistan was
poorest nation in the Soviet sphere.

Today, it is
challenged by corruption, weak governance, widespread unemployment,
seasonal power shortages, an external debt burden, and serious environmental
problems resulting from the agricultural and industrial policies employed under
Soviet rule. Active measures are required to overcome political corruption and
to ensure economic growth and stability. Assistance from the international
community has brought some relief through increased economic development and security
assistance.

Although archaeological remnants
dating to the fifth century B.C.E. have been discovered in the area,
there is little to suggest that Dushanbe was more than a small village until
the early twentieth century. Records show that as early as 1676, on every
Monday, villagers from the surrounding areas brought their produce to market at
this spot.

"Dyushambe"
belonged for a long time to the khanate of Bukhara. In 1920, the last Emir
of Bukhara briefly took refuge in Dyushambe after being overthrown by
the Bolshevik revolution. He fled to Afghanistan after the
Red Army conquered the area the following year.

With the Red Army
victory and coming of the railroad from 1929, the city became the
capital of the Tajik Soviet Socialist Republic. In 1929, the city was renamed
"Stalinabad," after Soviet leader Joseph
Stalin (1878-1953). The city was renamed "Dushanbe" in 1961 as
part of the next Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev's de-Stalinization
initiative.

The Soviets
transformed the area into a center
for cotton and silk production, and relocated tens of
thousands of people to the city from around the Soviet Union. The
population also increased with thousands of ethnic Tajiks migrating
to Tajikistan following the transfer
of Bukhara and Samarkand to the Uzbek SSR.

A peaceful and
relatively prosperous city under Soviet rule, severe rioting occurred
in 1990, after it was rumored that Moscow planned to relocate tens of
thousands of Armenian refugees to Tajikistan, which spurred local
nationalist sentiment. The city was badly damaged as a result of the Civil War
in Tajikistan (1992–1997) that sprang up in the nation shortly after its
independence, on September 9, 1991.

The main points of
interest are on, or close to, Prospekt Rudaki, which runs from the railway
station in the south to the bus station in the north.

Since that time
resurgences in the Tajik economy have transformed Dushanbe into a rapidly
growing commercial, cultural and industrial center. Many multi-story apartment
and office buildings were constructed and the city was beautified during this
period. Monuments and statues commemorating the city's Persian and Iranian past
were erected.

The Dushanbe synagogue, which was constructed in the early 1900s in
one of the two Jewish Quarters in Dushanbe at the time, was used by
the Jewish community there until February 2006, when the government demolished
it to make way for a new presidential residence, the "Palace of
Nations."
