The forgotten revolution of 1876
In May 1876, medrese students (tâlebe-i ulûm), members of the guilds (esnâf), and workers at the Imperial Arsenal headed to the streets to protest corruption, the influence of Russia on Ottoman politics, and declining standards of living. These protests culminated in the overthrow of both the Grand Vizier and the Sultan. The students demanded the creation of a constitution and a legislative assembly to check the executive’s power. At the time, ob…
Sexual Choking at University Students’ Most Recent Sexual Event
Introduction Sexual choking is a form of neck compression that has become prevalent among young adults in the United States and internationally. We aimed to examine sexual choking in relation to event-level consent and consent cues, wantedness, safe words, safe gestures, and bodily responses to being choked. Method The analytic sample was comprised of 3780 randomly sampled students (1839 women, 1858 men, 84 transgender and gender nonbinary studen…
Women’s Experiences with Exercise-Induced Orgasm
Exercise-induced arousal (EIA) and exercise-induced orgasm (EIO) have been described as occurring from engaging in exercise or physical activities that are vigorous, repetitive, or demanding of core abdominal muscles, usually apart from sexual situations and without direct genital stimulation. Few existing studies have examined EIA/EIO, and no prior studies have qualitatively explored these experiences. Thus, the purpose of this research was to u…
Softa and Yafta
This article highlights the importance of softa (medrese or madrasa students) to our understanding of the late Ottoman Empire. The softa, usually depicted as a wholly conservative force, were in fact split between liberal and conservative factions. To ally himself with the Muslim conservatives and undermine the liberal Muslims, Abdülhamid ii condoned violence against the Armenian population. The softa were motivated by diverse ideologies, ranging…

Prediction of violent reoffending in people released from prison in England
We aimed to externally validate the Oxford Risk of Recidivism (OxRec) tool to estimate 1- and 2-year risk of violent reoffending in people released from prison in England. We identified individuals using administrative data shared between official prison and police services. We extracted information on criminal history, clinical and sociodemographic risk predictors, and outcomes. Predictive ability was examined using measures of calibration and d…
How the powerful maintained their power
This article is set in the environs of the Eastern Anatolian town of Palu at the turn of the twentieth century. At the heart of this investigation is a puzzle: how did the local elite manage to maintain their power in the face of first Tanzimat (1839–1876) and then Hamidian centralization (1876–1908)? Based on the study of a range of primary sources, it appears that the local elites were able to ‘use’ the Armenian Question, and the fears of the c…

Korean History in Maps
Compared to the English-language fields of Chinese or Japanese history, Korean history started late, and the relatively fewer English-language textbooks and resources clearly reflect this. But recently the situation has changed, and there are far more resources available now than even a decade ago. Yet these works usually treat maps as an afterthought. Michael Shin and his colleagues, however, have addressed this problem with this edited volume. …
Back to the Homeland” (Tebi Yergir)
In 1889 the kidnapping and rape of a fourteen-year-old girl in Muş precipitated the creation of the Fedayi movement, a collection of self-defense groups espousing Armenian political liberation. The combination of international attention, the formation of the Hnchak in Istanbul, and the growth of revolutionary fervor in the Eastern Provinces terrified key sections of the Hamidian government. Convinced that history was repeating itself, in the mann…
War, the state and the formation of the North Korean industrial working class, 1931–60
This article examines how Koreans became industrial workers in the first and second phases of industrialisation on the peninsula: under Japanese colonial rule, 1931–45 and under the DPRK’s post-Korean War heavy industrialisation, 1953–60. While the political regimes of the Japanese colony and postcolonial DPRK were different, industrialisation occurred under similar conditions, characterised principally by war, state capitalism and imperialism. P…

Selected Writings of Han Yongun
One of Korea’s most eminent Buddhists and political activists in the independence movement during the long years of Japan’s colonization of his country, Han Yongun , otherwise known as Manhae (1879-1944), was a prolific writer and outstanding poet, known especially for his poetry collection Nim ui ch’immuk (‘The Silence of the Lover’). This volume, however, concentrates on translations of his principal non-literary works, which are published here…
Ties of Labour and Ties of Commerce
The wealthiest guilds of the Choson Dynasty (1392-1910) capital, Seoul, formed part of the government's provisioning system, providing mainly luxury goods for royal palaces, government offices and tribute gifts to China and Japan. The guild merchants were also expected to provide corvée labour to the government on a regular basis, although by the late nineteenth century much of this labour was commuted to cash payments. Using a collection of surv…
From Apec to WTO
Angry protests in Busan, South Korea during an Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) conference there in November have alarmed Hong Kong police preparing for a mid-December World Trade Organization ministerial conference. Hong Kong police fear that the some of the groups who showed up to protest APEC may also bring strident street protests to Hong Kong. This article examines some of the trajectories of protest apparent at the APEC events by lo…
Identity of the Literary Text
Identity of the Literary Text
Literary criticism today is dominated by the debate about whether texts have a fixed identity with established meaning or a variable identity with changing meaning. The very nature of what the critic does and what he can provide for his readers is being questioned; the challenge to the traditional view comes especially from the various theoretical formulations which, agreeing on the need to go beyond formal analysis, have been called post-structu…
Interpretation of Narrative
This volume the papers read at the International Colloquium on Interpretation of Narrative dealing with the methodology of text-oriented criticism and the discussion of fundamental agreement and acceptance of the hermeneutic method and reception theory.
