Las caravanas de camellos como modo de producción en la Afro-Eurasia posclásica. Una entrevista con Richard W. Bulliet
Objective/Context: This interview discusses the expansion of the camel caravan trade between roughly the sixth and sixteenth centuries. Wheeled transportation—used in West Asia during the Roman and Sasanid periods—basically disappeared around 500 CE, when camel caravans took over the transport business. Since the domestication of camels in Southern Arabia, sometime between 4000 and 3000 bce, and its adaptation over centuries to carrying loads in …

The Other Siege of Vienna and the Ottoman Threat
By proposing a counter-factual history in which the Ottoman siege of Vienna in 1529 succeeded, this essay attempts to illuminate both the parameters of Ottoman power at that time and the complexity of European politics at the dawn of the Protestant Reformation. As with many attempts at counter-factual history, this exercise seeks to offer a warning against teleological approaches to history in which major events and their outcomes are described a…

The Princeton Encyclopedia of Islamic Political Thought
The first encyclopedia of Islamic political thought from the birth of Islam to today, this comprehensive, authoritative, and accessible reference provides the context needed for understanding contemporary politics in the Islamic world and beyond. With more than 400 alphabetically arranged entries written by an international team of specialists, the volume focuses on the origins and evolution of Islamic political ideas and related subjects, coveri…
Neo-Mamluk Legitimacy and the Arab Spring
Many explanatory suppositions have been off ered to account for the civil disorder that struck so many Arab countries in the first six months of 2011. The popular term for this multi-nation upheaval is the Arab Spring. Most of these theories, however, have lacked a mechanism for linking the challenges to existing governments to the specific Arab societies that experienced them. The approach that will be advanced here is that the Arab Spring repre…
The Camel and the Watermill

Paper before Print
This handsomely produced and illustrated book is much more than a history of the manufacture and use of paper in the Islamic world. It introduces the reader to the entire history of papermaking, from its invention in China to the development of modern industrial methods. More intriguingly, however, it argues that paper should be thought of as a revolutionary technology on a par with movable type (and a necessary precursor to it, of course). In de…
Rhetoric, Discourse, and the Future of Hope
Misperceptions, farfetched stories about Islam, and invented connections between Muslims and terrorism have been the guiding factors in shaping the attitudes of the American establishment toward the Muslim world. This article sheds light on the post-1993 bombing of the World Trade Center when journalists and evangelicals looked for sensational and inflammatory statements about the so-called Islamic militancy toward the United States. In this proc…
The New Cambridge History of Islam
This volume traces the second great expansion of the Islamic world eastwards from the eleventh century to the eighteenth. As the faith crossed cultural boundaries, the trader and the mystic became as important as the soldier and the administrator. Distinctive Islamic idioms began to emerge from other great linguistic traditions apart from Arabic, especially in Turkish, Persian, Urdu, Swahili, Malay and Chinese. The Islamic world transformed and a…

The Crescent Obscured
From the beginning of the colonial period to the recent conflicts in the East, encounters with the Muslim world have helped Americans define national identity and purpose. Focusing on America's encounter with the Barbary states of North Africa from 1776 to 1815, Robert Allison traces the perceptions and mis-perceptions of Islam in the American mind as the new nation constructed its ideology and system of government. A powerful ending that explain…
Between Two Worlds
Cemal Kafadar offers a much more subtle and complex interpretation of the early Ottoman period than that provided by other historians. His careful analysis of medieval as well as modern historiography from the perspective of a cultural historian demonstrates how ethnic, tribal, linguistic, religious, and political affiliations were all at play in the struggle for power in Anatolia and the Balkans during the late Middle Ages. This highly original …

(') This lacuna in our knowledge is particularly regrettable because it deprives the researcher engaged in the study of a single medieval intellectual figure of a background against which to measure his subject while at the same time it leaves the social historian with a major gap in his understanding of medieval urban society. The one aspect of medieval education that will be dealt with in this article, namely, the age structure of …
Local Politics in Eastern Iran under the Ghaznavids and Seljuks
The political history of the Ghaznavid and Seljuk dynasties, which ruled much of Iran throughout the eleventh and twelfth centuries, is now fairly well known and recently has been drawn together in the excellent narrative of Professor Bosworth in the Cambridge History of Iran. It is still quite imperfectly understood, however, and will probably remain so for a good while yet to come. The old and serviceable schematization of the period based on t…
First Names and Political Change in Modern Turkey
One of the few predictable opportunities for the exercise of free will that comes the way of most human beings is the bestowal of names upon their children. To be sure, local or national custom may legally restrict or otherwise limit the scope of that freedom in some cases; but by and large, there is normally some choice to be made, and the beneficiary of the choice, the child, is inevitably powerless to influence it

The Future of the Islamic Movement
The Arab-Israeli conflict did not make the Islamic movement, and peace between Arabs and Israelis will not break it. From the time of Hasan al-Banna, the founder of Egypt's Brotherhood, onward, groups seeking to institute an Islamic moral, social and polit ical order have used the conflict with Israel as an instrument for pro moting their goals. They have piggybacked on the rage against Israel and sympathy for the Palestinians ceaselessly drummed…
The Arab Mind Revisited
Botr et Beranès
Les plus anciens chroniqueurs de la conquête arabe d'Afrique du Nord ont perçu la population berbère comme répartie en deux catégories : les Botr et les Beranès. Dans les sources qui se rapportent à la période antérieure à la conquête arabe, on ne rencontre nulle trace de ces termes, ni d'une quelconque division des Berbères en deux catégories bien tranchées. Beaucoup plus tard, cependant, l'historiographie arabe, et en particulier Ibn Khaldūn, s…
City Histories in Medieval Iran
The object of this article is to open up to speculation a historiographical problem which the serious student of Iranian urban history necessarily encounters. This is the problem of the motivation of the authors of medieval urban histories. In studying any single work or city, it may be possible to work around the problem; but as soon as a broader approach is attempted, encompassing several cities and numerous works, it looms as a major obstacle.…

Le Chameau et la Roue au Moyen-Orient
On a plus d'une fois fait la remarque, notamment parmi les orientalistes et les voyageurs, que la société musulmane traditionnelle du Moyen-Orient n'utilise aucun moyen de transport sur roues. Volnay écrivait au XVIIIe siècle : ' Il est frappant que dans toute la Syrie on ne rencontre ni chariot, ni charrette. ' Au XXe siècle, le célèbre historien de l'Espagne musulmane, Lévi-Provençal, écrit lui aussi : ' Il semble qu'il y ait - du moins durant …

The Camel and the Wheel
Why, for many centuries, was the wheel abandoned in the Middle East in favor of the camel as a means of transport? This richly illustrated study explains this anomaly. Drawing on archaeology, art, technology, anthropology, linguistics, and camel husbandry, Bulliet explores the implications for the region's economic and social development during the Middle Ages and into modern times
