From the nineteenth to the early twentieth centuries, recurrent and extreme climate disruptions became an underlying yet unacknowledged component of escalating conflict between Christian Armenian peasants and Muslim Kurdish pastoralists in Ottoman Kurdistan. By the eve of the First World War, the Ottoman states shifting responses to these mounting tensions transformed the conflict into organized and state-sponsored violence. Pehlivan upends the desert-sown thesis and establishes a new theoretical and conceptual framework drawing on climate science, agronomy, and zoology. From this alternative vantage point, Pehlivan examines the impact of climate on local communities, their responses and resilience strategies, arguing that nineteenth-century ecological change had a transformative and antagonistic impact on economy, state, and society.</p>...6967498The Political Ecology of Violence20182461https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-political-ecology-of-violence-9781009535045/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6908798/image.jpg?v=638762057455930000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2024Inglés
