MIDDLE EASTERN POLITICS<br />

Islam in Global <strong>Politics</strong><br />

Conflict <strong>and</strong> Cross-Civilizational Bridging<br />

Bassam Tibi, Former Professor Emeritus of <strong>International</strong><br />

<strong>Relations</strong>, University of Goettingen, Germany<br />

Reaching beyond traditionally politicised scholarship, this<br />

book provides a unique perspective on the place of religion<br />

<strong>and</strong> culture in global <strong>and</strong> local politics. Bassam Tibi examines<br />

the impact of Islam on ‘civilizational’ relations between<br />

different groups <strong>and</strong> polities, rejecting the ‘clash of<br />

civilizations’ theory <strong>and</strong> arguing for the revival of Islamic<br />

humanism to help bridge the gap.<br />

TEXTBOOK • 3RD EDITION<br />

Turkish Foreign Policy since 1774<br />

William Hale, School of Oriental <strong>and</strong> African Studies,<br />

London, UK<br />

This revised <strong>and</strong> updated version of William Hale’s Turkish<br />

Foreign Policy 1774-2000 offers a comprehensive <strong>and</strong><br />

analytical survey of Turkish foreign policy since the last<br />

quarter of the eighteenth century, when the Turks’ relations<br />

with the rest of the world entered their most critical phase.<br />

Combining the long historical perspective with a detailed<br />

survey <strong>and</strong> analysis of the most recent developments, this<br />

book fills a clear gap in the literature on Turkey’s modern<br />

history. For readers with a broader interest in international<br />

history, it also offers a crucial example of how a medium<br />

sized power has acted in the international environment.<br />
