Tashkent Postcards
This article acknowledges the ways in which the so-called national literatures of North Africa's deterritorialized communities sit awkwardly with modern historical narratives: In this case, the presence of Algerians in Russian-language texts (as well as others) from the First Afro-Asian Writers’ Conference held in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, during October 1958 serve as a complement to documentation in the archive of an independent nation.

Yahya’s Egypt and the Soviet Union, 1955-1972 (1989) and Rami Ginat’s The Soviet Union and Egypt, 1945-1955 (1993) established a chronology which enable a discussion of this influential Arab country’s past in terms of its present; this intervention tests a variety of methods from the “di…
Ghosts of Empire in Egypt
This article “Ghosts of Empire in Egypte” offer a fresh approach to the Cold War. The full story of Turkey’s ambassador in Egypt and his revenge remained out of the public eye until newspapers offered full details of a plot, clearly aimed at staging: “a military coup, assassinate Gamal Abdul Nasser and other revolution leaders, and re-establishing the monarchy in Egypt.” Great Britain’s prime minister Anthony Eden concluded the maintenance of his…
Concepts of Space
Space, in the dictionary, is “a continuous area or expanse which is free, available, or unoccupied” and “the dimensions of height, depth, and width within which all things exist and move.” Those of us who are social scientists may recognize Henri Lefebvre's unitary theory of space in the dictionary definition, which seeks to capture physical, mental, and social “fields” constituting space: spatial practices, representations of space, and represen…

Politics of Cinema in Hashemite Iraq
Hashemite Iraq was better integrated into the global cinema that other Arab countries. Baghdad audiences loved film noir , and the US succeeded in displacing the UK as a source of newsreels, as well. During the Cold War’s first decade, Hollywood continued to pump inexpensive productions and aged celluloid through Iraq, including films made under US government contracts. Local viewers responded thoughtfully to such films, engaging themes such as r…

O ladrão da Babilônia
On the fair green hills of RioThere grows a fearful stain:The poor who come to RioAnd can’t go home again.On the hills a million people,A million sparrows, nest,Like a confused migrationThat’s had to light and rest,Building its nests, or houses,Out of nothing at all, or air.You’d think a breath would end them,They perch so lightly there.But they cling and spread like lichen,And the people come and come.There’s one hill called the Chicken,And one …
