Russian-Ottoman borderlands : the Eastern question reconsidered
Lucien J. Frary (Editor), Mara Kozelsky (Editor), Candam Badem
During the nineteenth century European and Russian diplomats debated the “Eastern Question”, or, “What should be done about the Ottoman Empire?” Russian-Ottoman Borderlands brings together an international group of scholars to show that the Eastern Question was not just one but many questions that varied tremendously from one historical actor and moment to the next.
