Really nice piece, @NicholasDanfort ! What a fascinating glimpse into post-Ottoman encounters in America! My great uncle studied at North Carolina State University in late 1940s, where he befriended Palestinians and Arabs. This is him in Arab costumes in his friend's dorm room.

What a nice Festschrift dedicated to Professor Paul Dumont! I had the honor of having Dumont as my PhD co-supervisor. A true mensch!

Hınçla yeniden popülerleşen bir neo-Kemalizm ve buna karşı reaksiyonerleşen bir post-Kemalizm çatışmasının ötesinde, akademik ve siyasi olarak yeni arayışlar ve açılımlar için hepimizin bildiklerimizi ve sevdiklerimizi sınamamız ve yeniden değerlendirmemiz gerekiyor. 3/4

My own research was very much inspired by Zafer Toprak's pioneering work on "Bolshevik Young Turks" and Muslim internationalism in the post-WWI period. He has been very kind and generous with his support. He may rest in peace.
