The Young Turks in Opposition by M Hanioglu
This is the first in-depth study of the secret society called CUP (Committee of Union and Progress), based on their own papers. It pays special attention to the Young Turks as an intellectual movement which continues to influence the thinking of Turkish intellectuals in the 1990s. It also provides important insights into diplomatic relations between the Ottoman Empire and the so-called Great Powers of Europe at the turn of the century.
Hanioglu's study is based on exhaustive primary research; his is the first history of the CUP based on the private papers, journals, and newspapers of its membersThis archival research will surely delight specialists and is clearly the greatest strength of the text. * David J. Staley, Marietta College, The Historian *
This is a highly original and meticulously researched account of what has been hitherto a somewhat neglected subject ... Hanioglu has produced a balanced and sophisticated account of Young Turk thought which is unlikely to be superseded for many years. It will be indispensable to anyone working on the political, intellectual or social history of the late Ottoman empire and the Turkish republic. * Stephanie Cronin, Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies, Vol. 60, No. 2, '97 *
