Eugene Rogan has written an authoritative new history of the Arabs in the modern world. Starting with the Ottoman conquests in the sixteenth century, this landmark book follows the story of the Arabs through the era of European imperialism and the Superpower rivalries of the Cold War, to the present age of unipolar American power. Drawing on the writings and eyewitness accounts of those who lived through the tumultuous years of Arab history, The Arabs balances different voices - politicians, intellectuals, students, men and women, poets and novelists, famous, infamous and the completely unknown - to give a rich, complex sense of life over nearly five centuries.
Rogan's book is remarkable for its geographical sweep, covering the Arab world from North Africa through the Arabian Peninsula, and for the depth in which it explores every facet of modern Arab history. Charting the evolution of Arab identity from Ottomanism to Arabism to Islamism, it covers themes including the conflict between national independence and foreign domination, the Arab-Israeli struggle and the peace process, Abdel Nasser and the rise of Arab Nationalism, the political and economic power of oil and the conflict between secular and Islamic values.
This multilayered, fascinating and definitive work is the essential guide to understanding the history of the modern Arab world - and its future.
Eugene Rogan is author of the bestselling The Fall of the Ottomans: The Great War in the Middle East, 1914-1920. He is professor of modern Middle Eastern history at the University of Oxford and Director of the Middle East Centre, St Antony's College, Oxford.

评分 评分以儒家文明为内核的社会,以西方文明为内核的西方社会,以及阿拉伯世界,是当今世界上比较活跃的人类社会团体。阿拉伯世界与开放的西方社会不同,它更加神秘,也更不为外人所知;与兼容并蓄的儒家文明也不同,它更像是铁板一块。 这本《征服与革命中的阿拉伯人:1516年至今》是...

评分A history of defeat, terror and proxy wars. An insightful and thought provoking contribution to the modern history of The Arabs.
评分非常好读的通史,写的简单易懂,非常适合闲暇阅读,文笔上比Albert Hourani的阿拉伯历史要简单很多,随便翻翻就读完了,Hourani大师的书要一边撞墙才能读的下去。因为是通史肯定有所省略,但整体逻辑的严谨性和贯通感保持的很好。
