The textbook focuses on Turkey, Iran, and the Arab countries of the Middle East, as well as areas often left out of Middle East history--such as the Balkans and the changing roles that Western forces have played in the region for centuries--to discuss the larger contexts and influences on the region's cultural and political development. Enriched by the perspectives of workers and professionals; urban merchants and provincial notables; slaves, students, women, and peasants, as well as political leaders, the book maps the complex social interrelationships and provides a pivotal understanding of the shifting shapes of governance and trajectories of social change in the Middle East. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eExtensively illustrated with drawings, photographs, and maps, this text skillfully integrates a diverse range of actors and influences to construct a narrative that is at once sophisticated and lucid. \u003ci\u003eA History of the Modern Middle East\u003c\/i\u003e highlights the region's complexity and variation, countering easy assumptions about the Middle East, those who governed, and those they governed--the rulers, rebels, and rogues who shaped a region.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45029163892887,"sku":"9780804783248","price":3833.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780804783248.webp?v=1767142170","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-history-of-the-modern-middle-east-rulers-rebels-and-rogues-9780804783248","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
