Participants will be able to ask him about his book's argument\, his process of conducting archival research for this book\, and the process of turning his dissertation into a monograph. Participants should come having read his book\, or at least some parts (or even just one chapter) of it. \nDr. Hamed-Troyansky is a historian of global migration and forced displacement and Assistant Professor of Global Studies at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. His research examines Muslim refugee migration and its role in shaping the modern world. He is the author of Empire of Refugees: North Caucasian Muslims and the Late Ottoman State (Stanford University Press\, 2024). Dr. Hamed-Troyansky is currently working on a transnational history of Muslim displacement in the Middle East\, Central Asia\, and South Asia since 1850. \nEmpire of Refugees reframes late Ottoman history through mass displacement and reveals the origins of refugee resettlement in the modern Middle East. Vladimir Hamed-Troyansky offers a historiographical corrective: the nineteenth-century Ottoman Empire created a refugee regime\, predating refugee systems set up by the League of Nations and the United Nations. Grounded in archival research in over twenty public and private archives across ten countries\, this book contests the boundaries typically assumed between forced and voluntary migration\, and refugees and immigrants\, rewriting the history of Muslim migration in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The book has already won two awards - 2024 Gold Medal in the History (World) category\, Independent Publisher Book Awards and 2024 Alixa Naff Prize in Migration Studies\, Moise A. Khayrallah Center for Lebanese Diaspora Studies . \n\nDr. Hamed-Troyansky has made this  digital map of over 1\,100 North Caucasian refugee villages in Turkey\, Jordan\, Syria\, and Iraq.\n I'll hope to see you all at the event! If anyone is interested in workshopping articles-in-process or dissertation chapters in March or April with the Central Asian Studies RIW please write me to let me know.
