About the Book

Asia was the principle focus of empire-builders from Alexander and Akbar to Chinggis Khan and Qianlong and yet, until now, there has been no attempt to provide a comprehensive history of empire in the region. Empire in Asia is the first thorough survey of the topic

Volume I traces the evolution of a constellation of competing empires in Asia from the 13th through to the 18th centuries. It describes the history and characteristic features of imperial regimes in each major sub-region of Asia, from the Ottomans and Safavids in the West, Romanovs in the North, Mughals in the South, the Mongols & their successors in Inner Asia, to the Ming and Qing Dynasties in the East. Volume II covers the long 19th century, commonly seen in terms of 'high imperialism' and the global projection of Western power. It explores the dynamic, volatile and contested processes which caused, by the early years of the 20th century, the integration of Asian states, spaces and peoples into the wider dynamics of global reordering.

The 2 volumes of Empire in Asia offer a significant contribution to the theory and practice of empire when considered globally and comparatively, and are essential reading for all students and scholars of global, imperial and Asian history.
