Kirasirova M, Litvin M. Soviet– and Russian–Arab Linkages: A Dimension of Global Middle East Studies. International Journal of Middle East Studies. 2024;56(3):485-489. doi:10.1017/S0020743824000977
Abstract
The roots of the Arab world’s current Russian entanglements reach deep into the tsarist and Soviet periods. However, this shared history has fallen through the cracks of academic structures that approach the two regions separately. This roundtable, part of a growing scholarly effort to heal the area studies divide, expands and reflects on the recently published book Russian-Arab Worlds: A Documentary History, which we co-edited with historian Eileen Kane.
