Covering a period from the late eighteenth century to today, this
volume explores the phenomenon of urban violence in order to unveil
general developments and historical specificities in a variety of
Middle Eastern contexts. By situating incidents in particular
processes and conflicts, the case studies seek to counter notions
of a violent Middle East in order to foster a new understanding of
violence beyond that of a meaningless and destructive social and
political act. Contributions explore processes sparked by the
transition from empires - Ottoman and Qajar, but also European - to
the formation of nation states, and the resulting changes in
cityscapes throughout the region.
