“…Urbanization, expanding educational opportunities, and the belated introduction of print capitalism brought the simultaneous emergence of itinerant social classes and new idioms of contentious politics (Aydin 2007, Cole 2002, Gershoni and Jankowski 2002, 2009, Keddie 1983, Khuri-Makdisi 2010, Laffan 2003, Metcalf 2014, Ryzova 2014, Watenpaugh 2014.
