> In spite of its relevance to contemporary events the history of public
> violence in Middle Eastern cities has not yet been the subject of
> systematic academic debate. Building on a workshop held at the Zentrum
> Moderner Orient Berlin in December 2011 this international conference
> explores the violent histories of some of these cities from the 18th to
> the late 20th centuries through a variety of actors, themes and
> historical processes.
>

>
> Covering the Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia papers feature
> crowds and elites; urban space, discipline, discourse and ritual
> performance;empire, colonialism, war and revolution. Speakers include
> established and young Middle Eastern historians, and a number of
> academics specialising in other disciplines and regions in order to
> foster comparative and interdisciplinary understandings of urban
> violence.
