内容説明

How does empire affect the route to successor sovereign states and their features? This systematic comparison of empires and their consequences for sovereignty applies theory to the political structures of states, and the differences between them, in the Middle East and Central Asia. This title raises a clear set of research questions about variations of imperial practice. It puts forward an attractive and persuasive case that imperial legacy has been an important variable in the post-independence period.
