Matt: I don't have time to comment--any time I might've had to do that has
just been used up in other posts, rather obviously, and I've need to start
doing what I'm paid to do here at my institution--but, having had to do a
last-minute stand-in a year ago for an introductory modern-Middle-East
course, I have to say that (though I can't speak from the perspective of
firsthand research) I agree completely with your historical analysis re the
British hand in mucking things up. You've also made a thoughtful theoretical
beginning here. Keep it up.
