Author Biography NOOR KHAN Assistant Professor at Colgate University, New York, USA. Table of Contents Historical Background Congresses and Conspiracies In Englands Misfortune, Our Opportunity Revolutions and Reality News from India Review "Khans study points up the limits of nationalist history fixed within national space. . . The work as a whole traces a key historical shift from an anticolonial movement that remained strategically and ideologically ambivalent toward empires in general and the Ottoman Empire in particular to a global, anti-imperial campaign to establish a system of sovereign nation-states." Arab Studies JournalThe book is an original and important analysis of a hitherto-unexplored dimension of Egyptian nationalism. The connections and mutual influences between Egyptian and Indian nationalists in the first half of the twentieth century are occasionally alluded to in existing studies, but have yet to receive a systematic treatment such as is accomplished here. The work expands our understanding of twentieth century Egyptian history while also making a contribution to the expanding field of transnational studies. James Jankowski, Professor Emeritus, University of ColoradoThis is a remarkable and important work, which ties together disparate realms that are rarely considered in conjunction, like Egyptian and Indian nationalism, and does so with a sure mastery of the trajectories of both. Noor-Aiman Khan has produced more than just an account of the impact of the Indian independence movement on its Egyptian compatriots. She has elucidated and clarified the nature of the relationships between colonized peoples going back to before World War I, showing that these relationships were in fact the precursor of the Non-Aligned Movement. Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said Professor of Arab Studies, Department of History, Columbia UniversityThe vast majority of scholarship on the colonial era focuses on the vertical relationship between the center and the periphery. Noor-Aiman Khans important book offers a new perspective that examines the horizontal ties among the nations under colonial rule. Through careful study of the interaction between Indian and Egyptian nationalisms, Khan shows that these movements developed an awareness of their common enemy and a shared mission to build a new world order based on sovereign and independent states. Khans work opens our eyes to new forms of transnational solidarity, collaboration, and identity that shaped both the Egyptian and Indian struggles for independence. Bruce K.
