This section aims to capture and contrast snapshots of various struggles about the imperial and post-imperial reshaping of the region in the time between the Crimean War and the Suez Crisis. Agents appropriated intellectual categories and practices both of diversity and exclusivity. These processes of negotiation sometimes resulted in temporarily successful modes of managing diversity, at other times in catastrophic disentanglement. The section proposes the approach of “reflexive area studies” in order to bridge the gap between the often divided Area Studies and other disciplines.
