Diplomatic interactions in the contemporary period are a crucial subset of the international relations of modern Middle Eastern states. But, they are overlaid upon a tangle of domestic and foreign policies of the late Ottoman and Qajar empires. The political volatility of the modern period meant that some of the more durable continuities of regional interactions were in public and private non-state spheres - commercial, nomadic, scholastic, religious - that outlasted the particular states that tried to regulate them.
Below you will find resources from three aspects of Regional Interactions:
