Aksakal Mustafa: The War That Made the
Middle East

The War That Made the Middle East

World War I and the End of the Ottoman Empire

Sisi's New Republic

Counterrevolution in Egypt

This book provides a unique history of modern America told through the story of the U.S. Supreme Court. Recognizing the Court as both a legal and political institution, George Conyne introduces the reader to the principal methods of analysis of both political and legal history. The History of the United States Supreme Court sees the important events in the life of the Supreme Court interpreted in a way that demonstrates and explores its complex role in American life, including both the ways in which it has shaped the United States and how in turn it has been shaped by the nation it serves.

This comprehensive text includes material on the Court's origins, the John Marshall years, the difficulties that arose from US expansion and the Civil War, the rise of corporations, the reform movements, civil liberties concerns, the clash over the New Deal, the civil rights movements, abortion and privacy, and many other key issues in American history. There are clear explanations of differing judicial analysis methodologies throughout as well as useful case studies, a glossary and a further reading list.

A Modern Commentary and Analysis

The History of the United States Supreme Court

After the German and Italian attack on Yugoslavia, Croatian fascists - the Ustasha - declared the independence of Croatia in April 1941. This short-lived state became one of the most significant theatres of genocide of wartime Europe, with these independent nationalists committing acts of violence against Serbs, Jews, and Roma.

Intertwined Genocides explores the patterns and the internal logic of the genocides carried out by Croatian fascists - the Ustasha - against Serbs, Jews, and Roma during the Second World War. Korb argues that the Croatian fascists were not German puppets, but strong-minded and largely independent agents, despite the German and Italian occupation of their country. They tried to transform their short-lived wartime Croatian state into a mono-ethnic nation-state by force. Whilst pursuing their violent agenda, they soon lost control over much of their territory owing to the armed resistance of their victims. What followed was an escalation of multiple layers of collective violence: local genocide, the German Holocaust, the occupiers' war against partisans, and an escalating civil war, all inextricably intertwined.

Because of this mix of perpetrators and their competing agendas, and because of the dynamics of violence and counter-violence, resistance and revenge, aggression and fear, Croatia became one of the most violent venues during the Second World War. Intertwined Genocides shows that South-eastern European nationalists carried out genocide independently of the Germans. Moreover, Alexander Korb brings critically important insights to the histories of violence, genocide, and its perpetrators: in a multi-ethnic society, genocide cannot be studied as an isolated phenomenon. Its dynamic escalation had dramatic effects on every ethnic group, and the victims' responses had a significant impact on the course of events throughout the Second World War, and into the latter half of the twentieth-century.

Together the Dacians and the Getae were the creators of the largest unified power of ancient Europe outside of the Roman Empire, yet each was colonized and integrated into the Roman imperial system differently. Unlike the short-lived but intense Roman experience of the Dacians, the Getae met first Greek colonists, followed by Roman integration in stages over many years. This volume utilizes high-resolution GIS mapping, remote sensing data, and aerial and satellite imagery to demonstrate changes to the landscape and to reconsider human settlement in antiquity. It provides a fresh investigation of the evolution of urbanization and developments in local economy, as well as long-term changes in material culture, social behavior, and identity over more than a thousand years. The Getae offers a realistic appreciation of the character of Roman military occupation and participation of provincial subjects in the Roman imperial system.

Together the Dacians and the Getae were the creators of the largest unified power of ancient Europe outside of the Roman Empire, yet each was colonized and integrated into the Roman imperial system differently. Unlike the short-lived but intense Roman experience of the Dacians, the Getae met first Greek colonists who settled along the western Black Sea shore, followed by Roman expansion and integration of the territory in stages over many years. As the imperial system gradually changed its ideology, priorities, and control mechanisms, the Getae were afforded numerous opportunities for contact and cultural change. The data and literature on the Getae to date has however emerged from traditional site-based investigations and surveys, resulting in heavily biased and fragmented understandings of the scale, nature, and impact of their conquest and colonization. This sweeping volume utilizes high-resolution GIS mapping, extensive analysis of remote sensing data, and archival aerial and satellite imagery to present a holistic view of changes to the landscape and to reconsider the extent of human settlement in antiquity. It offers a fresh investigation of the evolution of urbanization, developments in local economy, taxation, and administration, as well as long-term changes in material culture, social behavior, and identity over a period of more than a thousand years. The Getae offers a uniquely realistic appreciation of the nature and character of Roman military occupation and the participation of provincial subjects in the Roman imperial system.

Changing Landscapes of Colonization, Imperialism, and Memory

The Getae

This book takes readers through the major events and debates in the modern history of the Republic of Turkey. Beginning with the collapse of the Ottoman Empire at the end of WWI and the victory of nationalist forces in 1923, it relays the key turning points, issues and trends in the Republic's history. It gives readers a strong grounding in the political history as well as historiographical debates including: - the nation building process and nationalisms; - the development of political Islam - the impact on Turkey of the Cold War - decolonisation - the role of the army in politics and the dominance of the coup in historiography - class structure - human rights - civil society - secularism - the Ottoman legacy The book incorporates the very latest thinking on the study of Turkey into its narrative, covering essential issues hitherto left out of introductory texts which prioritise security such as migration (both internal within Turkey and out of and into Turkey); economic models; Turkey's geostrategic position; energy resources and policies; the environment; gender: and entertainment culture including sport. Each of the book's 13 chronological chapters includes a chronology of major events and a further reading and sources section which include Turkish short stories, novels or poems in translation, online open access sources, films and documentaries and text boxes containing, poetry, film posters, newspaper headlines, short biographies, adverts, and information on specific events such as the introduction of TV feature throughout the text to aid learning. Breaking with the Cold War paradigm and its focus on the coups and security as well as approaches to Turkey which over emphasise the Ottoman past, this book offers readers a new assessment of the Republic which reflects the diverse approaches to its history prevalent in current scholarship.

US Foreign Policy and Conflict in the Islamic World

The United States and Turkey were extraordinarily close allies during most of the Cold War with Turkey being central to U.S. strategy in the Middle East. In the aftermath, the United States and Turkey faced a range of new challenges to their relationship which nonetheless remained strong until the 2003 Iraq War. The U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and the overthrow of Saddam Hussein revealed divergences in the interests of the two allies and led to tensions not seen since the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus. Lansford and Pauly seek to identify the main convergences and divergences of U.S. and Turkish interests and analyzes the trends in relations between the two states. They provide a thorough examination of national interests and how those interests define foreign and security policy for the two states. The examination of interests provides deep insight into the U.S.-Turkish relationship. The book explores U.S. support or opposition to Turkish actions toward Greece, Cyprus and the Kurds within the broader context of the machinations of U.S. foreign policy toward the Middle East, including support for Israel and efforts to contain first Iran and then Iraq.

Decolonising My Body

A media scholar&nbsp;critically examines how US establishment media ran interference for Israel’s genocide in Gaza, with reporting that called the Flour Massacre “aid-related deaths,” and the Tent Massacre a “tragic mistake.” Over eight months, media coverage aligned with Israeli military narratives, condoning Israeli war crimes and the massacres of Palestinians as the world responded in outrage.
The Complicit Lens&nbsp;scrutinizes US media's portrayal of Israel’s war on Gaza post-October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks, contrasting it with social media reports and international news coverage. It reveals how reporting mystified Israeli bombings, used passive language to deflect blame, and repeated Israeli talking points. The analysis identifies consistent war tropes and atrocity propaganda—beheaded babies and mass rape—used to justify Israeli actions and obscure culpability.&nbsp;Israeli violence was presented as defensive and justified, either by the October 7 attacks, or by claims that Israel was targeting Hamas fighters and commanders not civilians. Later reporting included false claims that war crimes and massacres were mistakes or accidents.
The book&nbsp;documents the targeted killings of journalists and aid workers, underreported in US media, and critiques the editorial censorship that avoided terms like "genocide" and "massacre" for Palestinian deaths. As global protests against the Gaza genocide rose, the book also analyzes the biased media portrayal of these uprisings, particularly those led by young people and Jewish organizations. Examining specific incidents and language, the book exposes how media coverage facilitated the ongoing genocide in Gaza.&nbsp;

During the Seven Years' War (1756-63) the Caribbean region became the setting for major naval and military operations in which Britain engaged its imperial rivals, France and Spain. This book focuses primarily on the context of British recruitment of slaves in its Caribbean colonies and illustrates the significant contribution that these colonies made, beyond supplying slave labor, to the conquests of Guadeloupe and Martinique and of Havana in Cuba in an important theatre of the conflict.
