As part of a broader discussion on Ottoman-Russian diplomacy, this book re-conceptualizes Ottoman-Russian relations in the Black Sea region in the 18th and 19th centuries. In response to significant increases in human mobility and the spread of epidemic diseases, Ottoman and Russian officials - at the imperial, provincial, and local levels - communicated about and coordinated their efforts to manage migratory movements and check the spread of disease in the Black Sea region. By focusing on the settlement of migrants and refugees along the peripheries of the Ottoman and Russian Empires and by foregrounding the role of local and municipal-level state authorities in the management of migration, Migration and Disease in the Black Sea Region contributes to the developing field of provincial studies in Ottoman and Russian history. This is an important book for anyone interested in comparative imperial history, migration, diaspora formation and the spread of epidemic diseases."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aEpidemics$vRussia$xHistory 606 $aEpidemics$vTurkey$xHistory 606 $2History 607 $aRussia$xEmigration and immigration 607 $aRussia$xRelations$zTurkey 607 $aTurkey$xEmigration and immigration 607 $aTurkey$xRelations$zRussia 615 0$aEpidemics$xHistory. 615 0$aEpidemics$xHistory. 676 $a939.5 676 $a304.8091822909033 700 $aRobarts$b Andrew$01208720 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910150304503321 996 $aMigration and disease in the Black Sea region$92788754 997 $aUNINA
