Historian of the intellectual history of the nineteenth century, democracy, and oil industry in the Caucasus region and the broader Middle East • Visiting Fellow, EUI, Florence
I would create a starter pack of the historians/ scholars of the Caucasus region but I’m not sure if they have already migrated to here. So it is a self tagging post.

I have created a "starter pack" for intellectual history, broadly construed, composed of historians, philosophers, political theorists, literary scholars, & more! Sorry for those I missed & cannot add (limit 150), but do reply, like, & share this post so that people can find you!
