Welcome to the Website "Urban Violence in the Middle East"

"Urban Violence in the Middle East" is a joint Anglo-German research project based on a collaboration of ZMO and SOAS from 2010 until 2013. The project is funded by DFG and AHRB. The main objective of the research project is to investigate the emergence and different forms of public and popular violence in selected Ottoman, Arab and Iranian cities from the early 19th century to the 1960s in a wide geographical setting which stretches from Tunisia to Iran. It aims at integrating these findings into discussions on urban violence which were developed with regard to other world regions, thus contributing to a globally comparative understanding of the phenomenon.
