Muslim-Christian Relations in Damascus amid the 1860 Riot
The Impact of European Imperial Influences, Economic Rivalries, and Religious Tension on Muslim-Christian Relations during the 1860 CE Riot in Damascus
Egypt's Occupation
The history of capitalism in Egypt has long been synonymous with cotton cultivation and dependent development. From this perspective, the British occupation of 1882 merely sealed the country's fate as a vast plantation for European textile mills. All but obscured in such accounts, however, is Egypt's emergence as a colonial laboratory for financial investment and experimentation. Egypt's Occupation tells for the first time the story of that financial expansion and the devastating crises that followed. Aaron Jakes offers a sweeping reinterpretation of both the historical geography of capitalism in Egypt and the role of political-economic thought in the struggles that raged over the occupation...

Powering Empire
The Age of Empire was driven by coal, and the Middle East—as an idea—was made by coal. Coal’s imperial infrastructure presaged the geopolitics of oil that wreaks carnage today, as carbonization threatens our very climate. Powering Empire argues that we cannot promote worldwide decarbonization without first understanding the history of the globalization of carbon energy. How did this black rock come to have such long-lasting power over the world economy? Focusing on the flow of British carbon energy to the Middle East, On Barak excavates the historic nexus between coal and empire to reveal the political and military motives behind what is conventionally seen as a technological innovation. He provocatively recounts the carbon-intensive entanglements of Western and non-Western powers and reveals unfamiliar resources—such as Islamic risk-aversion and Gandhian vegetarianism—for a climate justice that relies on more diverse and ethical solutions worldwide.
Hasan Al-Banna
Kisah pejuang Islam dari beliau kecil sehinggalah meninggal dunia. Beliau dididik dengan sebaik-baik didikan oleh orang tuanya, dan hasil didikan itu, beliau mempunyai cita-cita mengembalikan umat Islam kepada cara kehidupan Islam yang sebenar. Beliau mendirikan pertubuhan Ikhwan Muslimin yang mana pertubuhan itu mempromosikan gaya hidup Islam. Tidak terhad pada ibadah tetapi meliputi muamalat harian. Beliau akhirnya dibunuh kerana cita-cita murninya itu, bertentangan dengan keinginan pemerintah yang dipengaruhi kuasa asing.
