A Companion to the History of the Middle EastYoussef M. ChoueiriA Companion to the History of the Middle East offers a fresh account of the multifaceted and multi-layered history of this region.
Comprising 26 newly-commissioned essays by leading international scholars, the Companion treats the Middle East as four differentiated political units – Iran, Turkey, Israel, and the Arab world. While focused primarily on the modern and contemporary periods, it also includes a number of chapters on classical and pre-modern themes. Topics are situated within a chronological framework and include the rise of Islam, the militarization of Islam under a wide variety of dynasties, the commercial and industrial revolutions, colonial rule, and the struggle for independence. A final section highlights issues that have preoccupied historians in the second half of the twentieth century, and are most likely to gain momentum well into the twenty-first. These range from oil and urban growth to the role of women and democratic human rights. Ссылка удалена правообладателем ---- The book removed at the request of the copyright holder.
