How did the donmeh ascend to the top of ottoman society?

Well, thanks to devshirme the Ottoman power structure outside of the sultan was Islamized Europeans. They grabbed em young but not all those folks forgot where they came from. And in any case, thanks to sufism, that islamization process was heavily syncretised. Seems like a systemic blind spot.

It was a way to integrate all the population groups into the empire and it did seem to work till nationalism became a thing.

>What are your least favorite popular times in History?
For me, the Victorian era, boring as fuck, pretty much everything that came out of it is boring, literature, art, music, etc.
Also was my least favorite part in History and English class

I really hate how women (and it's almost always women) like these shitty victorian novels like Wuthering Heights or Oliver Twist. Like, holy shit, it's just a bunch of people getting shit on for 300 pages, were these authors trying to give people clinical depression?

Do you guys know of any good books about Thomas Müntzer and/or the German Peasants War? Preferably from a marxist perspective (as in what were the material conditions for Müntzers writings and influence and for the war itself) but it doesn't have to be.

Held off the Persians but got pretty much oversaw the beginning for the end for the Romans by losing Syria and Egypt- though its unsure whether any emperor could have held that back

What are some good secondary sources to Max Stirner?

I currently have "Individuality and the Social Organism" and Stirner's biography on order.

There is a book of sorts that Saul Newman, a solid political theorist wrote with a few other Stirner fans/theorists that "frames" stirner plausibly well in modern times.
I cannot remember the name at the moment and i do not have it at hand but it may well be titled
'Max Stirner' by Newman, check for pdfs

/his/ how did we handle the refugee influx during the Yugoslav wars.

How did integration go about, and when the war ended how did the return to the home country go about. Can we draw any parrallels with today?

No. The scale, demographics, and sociological background of the people is far different.

At the same time the Yugoslavians were distributed much better in the past than the current "refugees".

How did the most influential people of the 20th century (ranging from Ghandi to Hitler and Stalin) become who they were?
Also, what were their greatest weaknesses which prevented them from becoming even more influential?

You're not going to get a straight answer for that, as it falls back on the old, man makes the moment, the moment makes the man argument.

What are some good books/articles/theories that deal with power relationships between humankind and "nature". Nature in this sense I define as the sum of all non-human lifeforms (animals, bacteria, plants, funghi, algae, etc) and non-manmade environmental structures (mountains, woods, oceans, etc).

I'm looking for something that emphasizes the dialogical nature of power relationships, and focuses not just on one side of the argument. (i.e. How does man exert power over nature and how does nature exert power over man).

Something I found in another thread, which seems to fit the bill:
>Industrial Society and Its Future (Theodore Kaczynski)

Feel free to get more specific and tell us your own thoughts on the subject in the ensuing discussion! :3

Look into deep ecologists like Pentti Linkola, even though he is a bit of a doomsday prophet if that is something you do not like.
