During the First World War, Cemal Pasha attempted to establish
direct control over Syrian and thereby reaffirm Ottoman authority
there through various policies of control, including the
abolishment of local intermediaries. Elaborating on these Ottoman
policies of control, this book assesses Cemal Pasha's policies
towards different political groups in Syrian society, including;
Arabists, Zionists, Christian clergymen and Armenian immigrants.
The author then goes on to analyse Pasha's educational activities,
the conscription of Syrians- both Muslim and Christian, and the
reconstruction of the major Syrian cities, assessing how these
policies contributed to his attempt to create ideal Ottoman
citizens. An important addition to existing literature on the
social and political history of World War I, and contributing a new
understanding of Ottoman Syria, and its transformation into a
nation-state, this book will be of interest to students and
scholars with an interest in state formation, Politics and History.
