The Armenians of Aintab
A TurkÕs discovery that Armenians once thrived in his hometown leads to a groundbreaking investigation into the local dynamics of genocide. mit Kurt, born and raised in Gaziantep, Turkey, was astonished to learn that his hometown once had a large and active Armenian community. The Armenian presence in Aintab, the cityÕs name during the Ottoman period, had not only been destroyedÑit had been replaced. To every appearance, Gaziantep was a typical Turkish city. Kurt digs into the details of the Armenian dispossession that produced the homogeneously Turkish city in which he grew up. In particular, he examines the population that gained from ethnic cleansing. Records of land confiscation and...

The Identity Dilemma
Collective identities are politically necessary, or at least useful, as banners for recruiting others and engaging opponents and the state. However, not every member fits or accepts the label in the same way or to the same degree. The Identity Dilemma provides eight diverse case studies of social movements to show the benefits, risks, and tradeoffs when a group develops a strong sense of collective identity. The editors and contributors to this pathbreaking volume examine how collective identities can provide powerful advantages but also generate conflicts. The various chapters help to develop our understanding of collective identity from how strategic identities are developed for protest groups to how stigmatized groups negotiate identity dilemmas. Ultimately, The Identity Dilemma contributes a new strategic approach to understanding social movements that highlights the choices and tensions that groups inevitably face in articulating their ideas and interests. Contributors include: Marian Barnes, Cristina Flesher Fominaya, Umut Korkut, Elzbieta Korolczuk, John Nagle, Clare Saunders, Neil Stammers, Marisa Tramontano, Huub Van Baar, and the editors.

KUMRU KENZÜ’L-MESAİB
Kerbelâ, tarihin en elim hadisesi olmakla birlikte günümüze aktardığı ölümsüz mesajla, hak ile batılı ayırmaya devam etmektedir. Zira İmâm Hüseyin, Hz. Peygamber (s.a.a) efendimizin “Hüseyin, kurtuluş gemisidir.” buyruğunca, tarihin her döneminde hak ehlini kurtuluşa ulaştıran hidayet önderlerindendir. Edebiyatının temellerini, Hüseyin aşkı ve Kerbelâ’da yaşananlar üzerine bina eden Alevî-Bektâşiler için elinizde bulunan, Kumru diye bilinen bu değerli eser; Hadikatü’s-Sueda ile birlikte Kerbelâ’yı anmak, anlamak ve yaşatmak adına başvurulan en önemli ve meşhur eserlerden biridir. Kumru, Alevî-Bektaşîler arasında; herkesin haberdar olduğu, Muharrem ayında en çok okuduğu, yazma ve matbu nüshalarının; eski dergâhlardan, dedelerin ve babaların evlerinden çıktığı birkaç eserden biridir. Biz bu değerli eseri, ilk defa ilmî metotlarla neşretmekten kıvanç duyuyoruz. İmam Hüseyin’in anısına bir saray bina etmekte en ufak, emeğimiz oldu ise Allah, dergâh-ı izzetinde kabul buyursun. Aşk ile, gerçekler demine devranına Hû…
Summer of Simulation
This book is based on the “Summer Simulation Multi-Conference” (SCSC), which has been a prominent platform for the dissemination of scholarly research in the M&S community for the last 50 years. In keeping with the conference’s seasonal title, the authors have called this half-century “the summer of simulation,” and it has led not only to simulation-based disciplines but also simulation as a discipline. This book discusses contributions from the SCSC in four sections. The first section is an introduction to the work. The second section is devoted to contributions from simulation research fellows who were associated with the SCSC, while the third section features the SCSC’s most i...
Weathering
Weathering is atmospheric, geological, temporal, transformative. It implies exposure to the elements and processes of wearing down, disintegration, or accrued patina. Weathering can also denote the ways in which subjects and objects resist and pass through storms and adversity. This volume contemplates weathering across many fields and disciplines; its contributions examine various surfaces, environments, scales, temporalities, and vulnerabilities. What does it mean to weather or withstand? Who or what is able to pass through safely? What is lost or gained in the process?
