Examines the pan-Turkists, a group of Muslim activists who became involved in a wave
of revolutions taking place in Russia (1905), Iran (1906) and the Ottoman Empire (1908),
particularly focussing on three developments occurring between the middle of the nineteenth
century and the First World War: an expansion in mobility, the outbreak of revolution,
and a deep politicization of civilizational identity. Because these points are also
characteristic of the post-Cold War era, Meyer argues that the experiences surrounding
the pan-Turkists can provide valuable lessons for the present day. James H. Meyer
draws upon a vast array of sources, including personal letters, Russian and Ottoman
state archival documents, and published materials to recapture the trans-imperial
worlds of the pan-Turkists. Through his exploration of the lives of Akçura, Gasprinskii
and Ağaoğlu, Meyer analyzes the bigger changes taking place in the imperial capitals
of Istanbul and St. Petersburg, as well as on the ground in central Russia, Crimea
and the Caucasus. Turks Across Empires focuses especially upon three developments
occurring in the final decades of empire: an explosion in human mobility across borders,
the outbreak of a wave of revolutions in Russia and the Middle East, and the emergence
of deeply politicized forms of religious and national identity. As these are also
important characteristics of the post-Cold War era, argues Meyer, the events surrounding
the pan-Turkists provide valuable lessons regarding the nature of present-day international
and cross-cultural geopolitics
