Excerpt from Problems of the Middle East
The problems which go to the make-up of this book have been selected as representative of the issues of the political conditions in 'the Middle East. The reader will observe that a study of the Young Turks Party, together with a comprehensive survey of the relations of Korea with certain Powers, has been included, and by just so much the questions presented in this volume exceed the accepted political limitations of the Middle East. It is at best very difficult, if not impossible, to confine the political interests of the Middle East Within their geographical boundaries. The ties between Great Britain and Japan, which at one time might have brought an Asiatic Power to the active support of Great Britain in defence of anglo-indian inter ests, reveal in one direction the elastic character of the politics of the region. In another the Baghdad Railway, which links Near and Middle Eastern interests by indis soluble bonds, imparts a special Significance to the recent changes in the Ottoman Empire. The indulgence of the reader and of the reviewers therefore is asked, since no study of Middle Eastern politics can avoid encroaching a little upon those of the Near East and of the Far East.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, meticulously researched over many years, explores the origins and evolution of the Young Turks Party, a revolutionary movement that sought to topple the despotic rule of Sultan Abdul Hamid II and establish a constitutional monarchy in the Ottoman Empire. The author traces the party's roots in the reformist sentiments of the mid-19th century, shedding light on the political, social, and economic factors that fueled its growth. The book delves into the party's clandestine activities, its strategic alliances with various ethnic groups within the empire, and its eventual triumph in the 1908 Young Turk Revolution. It examines the party's ideological underpinnings, its commitment to constitutionalism, and its vision for a more just and equitable society. The author argues that the Young Turks Party played a pivotal role in shaping the political landscape of the Middle East, inspiring similar movements in other parts of the region and laying the foundations for the modern nation-states that emerged after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. The book offers a nuanced understanding of a complex and transformative period in history, providing valuable insights into the challenges and aspirations of a society yearning for change.
