Russian Hajj. Empire and the Pilgrimage to Mecca - Eileen Kane
Notes to Pages 11–17 195
- Work on Muslim migrations in Russia and the USSR from other fields and disciplines is vast,
multilingual, and by a multinational group of scholars primarily from Europe, the former Soviet
Union, Japan, and Turkey. See, for example, see Allen J. Frank, Islamic Historiography and “Bulghar”
Identity among the Tatars and Bashkirs of Russia (Leiden: Brill, 1998); Michael Kemper, “Khalidiyya
Networks in Daghestan and the Question of Jihad,” in Die Welt des Islams vol. 42, 1 (2002): 41–71;
and H. Komatsu, C. Obiya and J. Schoeberlein, eds. Migration in Central Asia: Its History and Current
Problems (Osaka: Japan Center for Area Studies, National Museum of Ethnology, 2000).
- For a brilliant attempt to narrate history in a way that overcomes (and undermines) the false
clarity of formal state borders, see Paul Carter, The Road to Botany Bay: An Exploration of Land-
scape and History (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1987). See also Martin W. Lewis
and Kären E. Wigen, The Myth of Continents: A Critique of Metageography (Berkeley: University of
California Press, 1997).
- For a fascinating recent study that extends the Russian Empire to encompass nonterritorial
spaces on the ocean, see Ryan Tucker Jones, Empire of Extinction: Russians and the North Pacific’s
Strange Beasts of the Sea (New York: Oxford University Press, 2014). For a marvelously innovative
narrative of Russian history through the biography of one man, and one that ventures somewhat
beyond Russia’s formal borders, see Willard Sunderland, The Baron’s Cloak: A History of the Russian
Empire in War and Revolution (Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 2014). See also Martin and
Wigen, The Myth of Continents, 1–19.
