Arash Khazeni

Tribes and Empire on the Margins of Nineteenth-Century Iran (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Traces the history of the Bakhtiyari, a confederacy of tribes in the rugged Zagros Mountains of Iran, as roads brought the Qajar government into closer contact and the British began to pursue their own projects in the region. The book approaches the history of early modern Iran from its edges and places tribal history at the heart of a complex story about imperialsim and transformation in a region that lies directly between Tehran and Baghdad.--Arash Khazeni is assistant professor of history at Claremont-McKenna College.
