Smyrna's Ashes: Humanitarianism, Genocide, and the Birth of the Middle East - Berkeley Series in British Studies
Michelle Tusan
The West tends to understand the Middle East primarily in terms of geopolitics: Islam, oil, and nuclear weapons. But in the nineteenth century it was imagined differently. This book re-evaluates how this story of the Eastern Question shaped the cultural politics of geography, and genocide in the mapping of a larger Middle East after World War I.
