Four Types of Loyalty in Early Modern Central Asia: The T?q?y-T?m?rid Takeover of Greater M? War? Al-Nahr, 1598-1605BRILL, 2012 M11 9 - 366 pages At the turn of the seventeenth century, a new dynastic party established authority across Central Asia. In "Four Types of Loyalty in Early Modern Central Asia," Thomas Welsford offers the first detailed account of how and why this happened. By examining some of the ways in which various social groupings helped to facilitate the T q y-T m rids acquisition of power, Welsford considers how such an instance of dynastic change might reflect the shifting loyalties, beliefs and preferences of an often overlooked wider subject population. |
