Description

This landmark scholarly work examines how Western temporal narratives of world history shaped the development of modern Middle Eastern societies. The book traces how Arabs, Muslims, Turks, and Jews engaged with and responded to Western historical frameworks, revealing the complex relationships between modernisation movements and cultural identity. Turkish Kemalism and Israeli Zionism emerge as critical case studies, demonstrating how nationalist projects attempted to redefine their peoples by rejecting perceived archaic cultural elements. Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in Comparative Social Science series, this work offers essential insights into the ideological foundations of modern Middle Eastern nation-states and the lasting impact of Western modernist thinking on the region's political and social development.
