In its last decade, the Ottoman Empire underwent a period of dynamic reform,
and the 1908 revolution transformed the empire's 20 million subjects into
citizens overnight. Questions quickly emerged about what it meant to be
Ottoman, what bound the empire together, what role religion and ethnicity
would play in politics, and what liberty, reform, and enfranchisement would
look like.

/Ottoman Brothers/ explores the development of Ottoman collective identity,
tracing how Muslims, Christians, and Jews became imperial citizens
together. In Palestine, even against the backdrop of the emergence of
the Zionist movement and Arab nationalism, Jews and Arabs cooperated
in local development and local institutions as they embraced imperial
citizenship. As Michelle Campos reveals, the Arab-Jewish conflict in
Palestine was not immanent, but rather it erupted in tension with the
promises and shortcomings of "civic Ottomanism."
