Global Order After Ukraine
The East’s Eastern Front
This article provides an overview of the neglected Caucasian front of the First World War and explores its impact on the overall course of the war and its legacy for the Middle East and Eurasia. By unexpectedly prolonging hostilities and leading the Russian empire to overextend itself, the conflict with the Ottoman empire contributed critically to Russia’s revolutionary crisis and collapse and thereby altered decisively the fate of the Middle Eas…
T imothy C. W inegard . The First World Oil War
Resource wars—conflicts wherein a real or perceived scarcity of essential resources either tempts avaricious actors to go to war or panics insecure ones into doing the same—are a perennial favorite of futurists and fantasists. The scenario of resource shortages condemning human societies to engage in bloody struggle makes indisputably compelling drama. Moreover, the notion that growing populations and rising consumption will ineluctably generate …
Muslim Mobilization in Imperial Russia’s Caucasus
This chapter examines the history of Islamic resistance movements against tsarist authority in the North Caucasus. From the late eighteenth century until 1917, the Muslims of the region presented a chronic concern for tsarist administrators. Most famously, a Salafi interpretation of Islam and Islamic law galvanized a series of religious figures from Dagestan to rally the mountain peoples of the Northeast Caucasus to reform their own communities a…
Why Turkey Has Been Quiet About Crimea
The Ottoman and Russian empires clashed for centuries, but Turkey's recent embrace of its imperial legacy has not emboldened it to challenge Moscow over the annexation of Crimea
Return of the Maxim Gun? Technology and empire in an age of austerity
Contrary to arguments that the financial crisis of 2008 and the subsequent economic difficulties of the United States presage a decline in American power in general and American intervention in foreign societies in particular, this article suggests that technological advances may allow the United States to maintain or even increase its coercive capabilities over foreign societies
Janet KLEIN. The Margins of Empire
In the Margins of Empire, Janet Klein delivers a solidly researched, thoughtful, and much needed account of the infamous Kurdish Hamidiye tribal regiments of the late Ottoman period. Established in 1890 by Sultan Abdülhamid II, from whence they derive their name, the Hamidiye regiments regularly find mention in histories of the late Ottoman period, but rarely careful analysis. Making extensive use of British, French, and Ottoman archival sources,…

Shattering Empires
The break-up of the Ottoman empire and the disintegration of the Russian empire were watershed events in modern history. The unravelling of these empires was both cause and consequence of World War I and resulted in the deaths of millions. It irrevocably changed the landscape of the Middle East and Eurasia and reverberates to this day in conflicts throughout the Caucasus and Middle East. Shattering Empires draws on extensive research in the Ottom…

Ethno‐Nationalism, Islam, and the State in the Caucasus
Buffers, not Brethren
The rise of mass national identities and nationalism is surely one of the most common narrative themes in the historiography of modern Europe and of many other regions. Scholars have created a tremendous theoretical and empirical literature on the origins of nationalist movements, the contents of nationalist ideologies and the formation of national identities. Although nationalism emerged as a western European phenomenon, the collapse of formal e…
