He delves into historic reasons for greater resilience of democratic institutions in Turkey as compared to Iran. Arguing that revolutions are time-bound phenomena whose forms follow global models in vogue at particular historical junctures, he challenges the ahistoric and purely local understanding of them. Furthermore, he argues that macro-structural preconditions alone cannot explain the occurrence of revolutions, but global waves, contingent events and the intervention of agency work together to bring them about in competition with other possible outcomes. To establish these points, the book draws on a wide array of archival and primary sources that afford a minute look at revolutions' unfolding. 517 3 $aRevolution & Constitutionalism in the Ottoman Empire & Iran 606 $aConstitutional history$zTurkey 606 $aConstitutional history$zIran 606 $aRevolutions$zTurkey$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aRevolutions$zIran$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aComparative government 607 $aTurkey$xPolitics and government$y1878-1909 607 $aTurkey$xPolitics and government$y1909-1918 607 $aIran$xPolitics and government$y1905-1911 615 0$aConstitutional history 615 0$aConstitutional history 615 0$aRevolutions$xHistory 615 0$aRevolutions$xHistory 615 0$aComparative government. 676 $a955.05/1 686 $aPOL000000$2bisacsh 700 $aSohrabi$b Nader$f1961-$0516900 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781862603321 996 $aRevolution and constitutionalism in the Ottoman empire and Iran$9844566 997 $aUNINA
