The National Pact Project, which was approved by the Turkish parliament and became official on 28 January 1920, was approved by the Ottoman Assembly. It envisaged the security of the Turkish presence in the region, which considered Anatolia as the axis, and was based on the thesis that this security started in Northern Iraq and Northern Syria. There was a Turkish-British rivalry with the central theme of oil in Northern Iraq. Ultimately, the winner was England, which had military and political power. According to the Turkish side, the separatist movements that emerged in the last period after the Cold War and concentrated in the south of Turkey, especially in Northern Iraq, revealed the realistic aspect of the National Pact project, which was developed against possible security gaps. However, Turkey has never put the project into practice, and limited operations in areas close to the borderlines have been sufficient.
An historical analysis is given of the ancient Armenian city of Van during the period from the Mongol invasions to the Safavid and Ottoman period with special attention on the Turkmen dynasties of the fifteenth century. The essay is based on Armenian, Islamic, and Ottoman primary sources and reinforced by scribal colophons of Armenian manuscripts copied in the Van-Vaspourakan region. An analysis of the relative prosperity enjoyed through Armenian trade in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries is provide as well as an examination of activity in the construction of churches and monastic life in general.

Post-Ottoman Studies: An are studies that never was2019 •
The Ottoman Empire lasted some six centuries (1299–1922) and disappeared a mere century ago. For much of this period, it was the suzerain force in the Eastern Mediterranean, Balkans, Anatolia, western Caucasus, North Africa, and Crimea. Through centuries of Ottoman rule its populations, societies, and landscapes were marked by common politics, institutions, concepts, cultural traits, circulation of goods and people, and social institutions. While it by no means brought homogeneity, such common historical experience socialised Ottoman populations and shaped societies in similar ways across a broad field of human activities. Nevertheless, no systematic programme for the exploration of Ottoman legacies has to date emerged. As a consequence, the geographical distribution, variation, and historical longevity of these legacies have yet to be fully explored and analysed. Moreover, in much scholarship, these legacies are outright ignored, assuming instead that the constituent parts were unmarked by centuries under Ottoman rule. It should go without saying that any polity that secedes from another is at its inception marked by that relationship and by institutionalised practices for handling such a relationship. Rather than the claim that post-Ottoman states are marked by Ottoman legacies having to be argued, the onus of proof should in the first place have been on those claiming that they are not. In the case of the Levant, such legacies are casually assumed to linger after 9–25 years of European mandate rule, but generally overlooked for four centuries of Ottoman rule.3 This is a typical case of Eurocentrism, whereby the primacy of European agency is the baseline assumption, while the importance of non-European agency is occluded (or at best has to be argued). In this chapter I explore successor states of the Ottoman Empire as an area studies principle that never was; namely post-Ottoman studies. The point is to propose this as a way to ask new questions, not immediately to provide answers. The claim in this chapter is that it is worthwhile making more comparisons between post-Ottoman polities, communities, and cultures across all fields of scholarship, and to study historical entanglements between them. The hypothesis, which is developed but largely left unanswered, is that there are important unexplored commonalities, in political, social and cultural terms, through much of post-Ottoman space. At the very least, it is worth considering avenues for studying these commonalities, as this may bring a better understanding of each individual polity and society (and phenomena within them), as well as insights into how imperial legacies linger in post-imperial space.

This article on research history is an overview of the Kurdish Studies in the Czech Republic and the former Czechoslovakia. Although Kurdish Studies had officially never been established in Czechoslovakia and the two countries that replaced it in 1993, viz. Czech Republic and Slovakia, still some remarkable contributions to the research of the Kurds were produced in the Czech and Slovak languages: geographer Josef Wünsch (1842–1907) was the first to locate the sources of the Euphrates and the Tigris and collected ethnographic material from Kurds and Armenians; Iranian Kurdish politician and academic Abdul Rahman Ghassemlou (1930–1989) spent two decades of his life in Prague and wrote there a valuable account of the traditional rural economy of Kurdistan; and, filmmaker Petr Zrno (born 1946) shot a comprehensive documentary film on Yezidism. The article sheds some light on these and other chapters of the history of the Czech (and, indirectly, also Slovak) research and/or awareness-raising interest in Kurdish issues. // Předkládaný článek z oboru dějin vědy podává přehled kurdských studií v České republice a bývalém Československu. Je souhrnem publikací a aktivit, v nichž svůj zájem o kurdská témata zpracovali čeští a slovenští vědci, geografové, cestovatelé, novináři, filmaři, autoři memoárové literatury a aktivisté. Kromě toho si zvláště všímá výrazného přínosu k osvětě o kurdských záležitostech, jíž se věnovali dva Kurdové žijící v bývalém Československu – Abdul Rahman Ghassemlou (autor první a jediné československé odborné monografie o Kurdech) a Yekta Uzunoglu (vydavatel české knihy kurdské lidové moudrosti). Článek rovněž zaznamenává souvislosti českého zájmu o kurdská témata s rakouskými a polskými vědci a výzkumnými institucemi.
