Show moreHistorians of the Middle East in the long nineteenth century have often considered empire-building the preserve of European powers. This book revises this picture by exploring how the Ottomans re-conquered and ruled large parts of present-day Yemen between 1849 and the end of World War I, after more than two centuries of independence under local dynasties. Drawing on a wide range of sources and on recent scholarship on empire and colonialism "Empire, Islam, and Politics of Difference" shows how the concepts and practices of Ottoman imperial rule were shaped through the encounters between Ottoman officials, their European rivals, and local communities. The result is a fresh look at the nature of governance in the late Ottoman Empire more generally. -- Back cover. The 'return of the Turks': the campaigns of 1871-73 and the context of Tanzimat imperialism -- Imperial visions : knowledge production, empire, and the creation of difference, 1849-75 -- 'According to their customs and dispositions' : elaborating politics of difference in Ottoman Yemen, 1874-91 -- Struggling for a righteous order : the rise of the Zaydi imams and the reconfiguration of difference, 1890-1908 -- An imperial borderland as colony? the Da"an agreement and the reaffirmation of colonial Ottomanism, 1905-19. by Thomas Kuehn.
