Die Anatomie frühneuzeitlicher Imperien
ausgangspunkt der Diskussion über imperiales Herrschaftsmanagement ist die Arbeitshypothese, dass es sich bei einem "Imperium" um ein Politik- und Gesellschaftsmodell handelt, dessen Integrationsleistung weder auf der "Verstaatung" von Herrschaft beruht d.h. der zunehmenden Monopolisierung von Herrschaftsrechten, wie sie für den klassischen, nach Souveränität nach außen wie nach innen strebenden Territorialstaat charakteristisch ist , noch auf einer Vereinheitlichung der Bevölkerung. "Imperiale" Mechanismen der Integration zeichnen sich dagegen dadurch aus, dass sie einen Ausgleich von Einheit und Differenz herstellen, ohne letztere zu beseitigen bzw. ersterer zu unterwerfen. Im Sinn einer neuen Politikgeschichte können die Kategorien der Imperienforschung für die Erforschung des Römisch-Deutschen Reichs genutzt werden. Die Ergebnisse überraschen, sowohl hinsichtlich der Geschichte des Alten Reichs als auch der Imperienforschung, die das Alte Reich bislang ausgeklammert hat.

Ottoman-Southeast Asian Relations (2 vols.)
Ottoman-Southeast Asian Relations: Sources from the Ottoman Archives, is a product of meticulous study of İsmail Hakkı Kadı, A.C.S. Peacock and other contributors on historical documents from the Ottoman archives. The work contains documents in Ottoman-Turkish, Malay, Arabic, French, English, Tausug, Burmese and Thai languages, each introduced by an expert in the language and history of the related country. The work contains documents hitherto unknown to historians as well as others that have been unearthed before but remained confined to the use of limited scholars who had access to the Ottoman archives. The resources published in this study show that the Ottoman Empire was an active actor within the context of Southeast Asian experience with Western colonialism. The fact that the extensive literature on this experience made limited use of Ottoman source materials indicates the crucial importance of this publication for future innovative research in the field. Contributors are: Giancarlo Casale, Annabel Teh Gallop, Rıfat Günalan, Patricia Herbert, Jana Igunma, Midori Kawashima, Abraham Sakili and Michael Talbot
