Appel à articles : Numéro spécial “Movements and Flows in the Arabian Peninsula, the Red Sea and the Gulf Region during WWI”, Arabian HUmanities, n°6 — LIMITE : 15/06/2014
Focus on movements and flows in/from/to the Red Sea, the Arabian Peninsula and the Gulf is meant to question the marginal position and isolation of the region during the war, to assess spatial and territorial reorganizations affecting movements and exchanges, and to give further attention to the region’s global connections. What are the exchanges that can be identified during this period both in the region and in a global context? To what extent did the war impact on such flows in a region where borders and frontiers were still porous, ill-defined and fought over?
Editors: Ulrike Freitag (FU Berlin), Philippe Pétriat (University of Paris I) and Martin Strohmeier (University of Cyprus). Deadline for proposals for papers: 15 June 2014 .
