Population Displacements and Multiple Mobilities in the Late Ottoman Empire
ISBN: 9789004543683 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The long-lasting Ottoman Empire was a theatre of armed conflict and human displacement.

Spanning from Europe to Asia, the book reassesses these movements. Rather than adopting a teleological approach to the study of the Ottoman defeat, it connects late Ottoman history to wider dynamics, extending or challenging existing concepts and...
