Shattered Dreams of Revolution
A study of the 1908 Young Turk Revolution from the perspectives of Arabs, Armenians, and Jews. The Ottoman revolution of 1908 is a study in contradictions—a positive manifestation of modernity intended to reinstate constitutional rule, yet ultimately a negative event that shook the fundamental structures of the empire, opening up ethnic, religious, and political conflicts. Shattered Dreams of Revolution considers this revolutionary event to tell the stories of three important groups: Arabs, Armenians, and Jews. The revolution raised these groups’ expectations for new opportunities of inclusion and citizenship. But as post-revolutionary festivities ended, these euphoric feelings soon turn...

A Handbook and Reader of Ottoman Arabic
Written forms of Arabic composed during the era of the Ottoman Empire present an immensely fruitful linguistic topic.

This rich material remains very little explored. Traditionally, scholarship on Arabic has focussed overwhelmingly on the literature of the various Golden Ages between the 8th and 13th centuries, whereas texts from the 15th century onwards have often been viewed as corrupted and not worthy of study. The lack of interest in Ottoman Arabic culture and literacy left these sources almost c...
Democracy for Sale
Democracy for Sale is an on-the-ground account of Indonesian democracy, analyzing its election campaigns and behind-the-scenes machinations. Edward Aspinall and Ward Berenschot assess the informal networks and political strategies that shape access to power and privilege in the messy political environment of contemporary Indonesia. In post-Suharto Indonesian politics the exchange of patronage for political support is commonplace. Clientelism, argue the authors, saturates the political system, and in Democracy for Sale they reveal the everyday practices of vote buying, influence peddling, manipulating government programs, and skimming money from government projects. In doing so, Aspinall and ...

Membaca Indonesia
Negara adalah sebuah konsep abstrak yang merupakan produk pikiran khas manusia. Seperti pendahulunya dalam kesepakatan kolektif seperti dinasti atau kerajaan, negara kemudian mengambil peran yang semakin besar dalam kehidupan warganya. Berbeda dengan bentuk kesepakatan lain seperti kesukuan yang relatif bebas, dominasi negara semakin menguat. Mewujud dalam bentuk regulasi dan perilaku elite pemerintahan. Rakyat dan Wilayah (keruangan) semakin menjadi subordinat bahkan tereliminasi, bukan lagi sebagai komponen setara dengan pemerintah dalam eksistensi negara. Diperlukan narasi-narasi mencerahkan untuk meluruskan yang kadung bengkok, serta menjaga yang masih lurus agar tidak ikut bengkok. Buku “Membaca Indonesia” ini berusaha mengumpulkan narasi-narasi itu. Merefleksi keindonesiaan kita: mengapa dan bagaimana keindonesiaan ini harus kita bangun. Semata agar kemerdekaan yang masih berproses ini bisa meraih visi idealnya: sebuah bangsa yang merdeka, bersatu, berdaulat, adil dan makmur.
