The current volume presents a selection of 126 texts in Uyghur posted in public spaces, translated, and annotated for this book. The author started photographing Uyghur texts in 2008 at the time of the Beijing olympics and continued to do so during 2009, the year of the so-called “Urumqi uprising” of July 5. This event generated a stream of texts posted in public spaces that reflected the efforts made by the authorities to re-establish control. In the course of his travels in the years thereafter the author continued to add to the corpus of photographed Uyghur texts. At the same time he started collecting, as comprehensively as possible, various types of folders, brochures, handouts, and product wrappings with texts illustrating aspects of Uyghur culture and society. The texts, published here for the first time, are primary source materials documenting a wide variety of aspects of daily life of the Uyghurs in Shinjang. The implicit messages or explicit references contained in many of these texts give them significance as clues towards an understanding of the existential realities they reflect or illustrate.

This volume is a collection of papers highlighting recent researches on Syriac Christianity in China and Central Asia. The topics range from artifacts to texts and their historical contexts, covering the period from the 7th to the 18th century. As the studies on Syriac Christianity in China and Central advance, focus has shifted from a general historical survey and textual translation to a more micro and meticulous study of specific concepts and terms and particular names of persons and places.

This study covers a period of some seventy-five years, from the abolition of right of qadam (priority) in 1905 until the adoption of the Law Concerning the Regulations for the Sufi Orders of 1976 by the Egyptian Parliament. During this period, regulations for the Sufi orders were contested and remained in limbo when amendments proposed by the shaykhs of the orders continued to be rejected by the mufti of Egypt. The abolition of right of qadam generated a proliferation of Sufi orders. A core realm of sufi orders recognized by the authorities was known as "official Sufi orders". A larger group of Sufi orders emerged which did not have official recognition and was referred to as "free Sufi orders". The history of the Sufi orders in both categories in the post-qadam era is at the centre of the present study.

East Turkistan Was Never a Part of China: Restoring Its Independence is the Only Way Forward By the East Turkistan Government in Exile The Truth Beijing Doesn’t Want the World to Know. In an age of global power shifts, East Turkistan stands at the heart of a critical geopolitical and moral battle. This definitive work, authored by the East Turkistan Government in Exile, in collaboration with the East Turkistan Policy Institute, unravels the meticulously suppressed history of a sovereign nation now facing physical and cultural genocide under Chinese occupation. For foreign policy professionals, human rights advocates, and national security experts, this is a call to action—and a roadmap to justice. Why should diplomats, policymakers, and scholars care? East Turkistan, often mislabeled as "Xinjiang," is not just a battleground for human rights; it is the linchpin of China's Belt and Road Initiative and an occupied country brimming with geopolitical significance. The stakes transcend borders—this is about the future of international law, the global fight against authoritarianism, and the principles that define humanity. What you’ll learn: The Untold History: Explore East Turkistan’s sovereign past and over 6,000 years of history that underscore its independence. The Geopolitical High Ground: Understand why East Turkistan’s vast natural resources and location at the crossroads of Asia make it indispensable in global strategy. Genocide in Real Time: A harrowing account of forced internment, sterilization, physical and cultural annihilation, mass enslavement, and Beijing’s attempts to erase an entire people. The Path Forward: A compelling argument for why restoring East Turkistan’s independence is the only sustainable solution—and how the international community can act now. Why this book matters: For Politicians and Diplomats: This is the definitive dossier for understanding China’s imperial ambitions and their impact on global security. For Foreign Policy Professionals: Gain insights into how the East Turkistan crisis intersects with key issues like human rights, international law, and global and regional stability. For Human Rights Advocates: Equip yourself with the evidence to hold Beijing accountable for ongoing atrocities. A White Paper with Global Implications This publication combines rigorous research, testimonies, and historical documents to debunk decades of Chinese propaganda and present an unassailable case for East Turkistan’s independence. The book is more than a revelation—it’s a rallying cry for leaders, academics, and citizens to champion justice and halt one of the most egregious geopolitical and humanitarian crises of our time. East Turkistan’s survival is a test of our shared humanity. Will you stand for freedom, truth, and justice?

Building on the rich scholarly legacy of Gunnar Jarring, the Swedish Turkologist and diplomat, the fourteen contributions by sixteen authors representing a variety of disciplines in the humanities and the social sciences provide an insight into ongoing research trends in Uyghur and Xinjiang Studies. In one way or other all the chapters explore how new research in the fields of history, linguistics, anthropology and folklore can contribute to our understanding of Xinjiang’s past and present, simultaneously pointing to those social and knowledge practices that Uyghurs today can claim as part of their traditions in order to reproduce and perpetuate their cultural identity. Contributors include: Ildikó Bellér-Hann, Rahile Dawut, Arienne Dwyer, Fredrik Fällman, Chris Hann, Dilmurat Mahmut, Takahiro Onuma, Alexandre Papas, Eric Schluessel, Birgit Schlyter, Joanne Smith Finley, Rune Steenberg Jun Sugawara, Äsäd Sulaiman, Abdurishid Yakup, Thierry Zarcone.

For 250 years the Turkic Muslims of Altishahr, who now call themselves Uyghurs, have cultivated a sense of history and identity that challenges Beijing’s national narrative. The roots of this history run deeper than recent conflicts, Rian Thum says, to a time when manuscripts and pilgrimage along the Silk Road dominated understandings of the past.

Over the last two decades, the study of graffiti has emerged as a bustling field, invigorated by increased appreciation for their historical, linguistic, sociological, and anthropological value and propelled by ambitious documentation projects. The growing understanding of graffiti as a perennial, universal phenomenon is spurring holistic consideration of this mode of graphic expression across time and space. Graffiti Scratched, Scrawled, Sprayed: Towards a Cross-Cultural Understanding complements recent efforts to showcase the diversity in creation, reception, and curation of graffiti around the globe, throughout history and up to the present day. Reflecting on methodology, concepts, and terminology as well as spatial, social, and historical contexts of graffiti, the book’s fourteen chapters cover ancient Egypt, Rome, Northern Arabia, Persia, India, and the Maya; medieval Eastern Mediterranean, Turfan, and Dunhuang; and contemporary Tanzania, Brazil, China, and Germany. As a whole, the collection provides a comprehensive toolkit for newcomers to the field of graffiti studies and appeals to specialists interested in viewing these materials in a cross-cultural perspective.
