dc.descriptionThe working people, who constitute the majority in any society, can be and deserve to be subjects of history. Joel Beinin’s state-of-the-art survey of subaltern history in the Middle East demonstrates lucidly and compellingly how their lives, experiences, and culture can inform our historical understanding. Beginning in the middle of the eighteenth century, the book charts the history of peasants, urban artisans, and modern working classes across the lands of the Ottoman Empire and its Muslimmajority successor-states, including the Balkans, Turkey, the Arab Middle East, and North Africa. Inspired by the approach of the Indian Subaltern Studies school, the book is the rst to present a synthetic critical assessment of the scholarly work on the social history of this region for the last twenty years. It o ers new insights into the political, economic, and social life of ordinary men and women and their apprehension of their own experiences. Students will nd it rich in narrative detail, and accessible and authoritative in presentation.en_US
