Correspondence, 1837-1945, of the Fairbank family. These are the letters of a remarkable American missionary family who were largely active in India and Ceylon, but whose papers provide many insights into Western attitudes to, and interactions with, Asian cultures. Yearly letters from a missionary friend in Foochow describe the turbulent events and political climate there between 1911-1931, including the Foochow Rebellion of 1911. Samuel Bacon Fairbank, the first family member to travel to India, was born 14 Dec 1822 in Stamford, Connecticut. He was educated at Illinois College (BA, Sources from the William R Perkins Library, Duke University 1842; MA, 1845) and Andover Seminary. On 26 Mar 1846 he married Abbie Allen and travelled with her to India that same year, under the auspices of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM). They had 4 children. They lived primarily in the Vadala District, carrying out missionary work among the rural Indians in local villages. His first wife died in 1852. On 11 July 1856 he married Mary Ballantine. They had 10 children, many of whom became missionaries. Samuel Fairbank remained in India for over 50 years of almost continuous service until his death on 31 May 1898. Emily Maria Fairbank, was born in Ahmednagar, India in 1846.

  • Empire by Law: Ottoman Sovereignty and the British Occupation of Egypt, 1882-1923
    Empire by Law: Ottoman Sovereignty and the British Occupation of Egypt, 1882-1923 Aimee M. Genell Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Aimee M. Genell All rights reserved ABSTRACT Empire by Law: Ottoman Sovereignty and the British Occupation of Egypt, 1882-1923 Aimee M. Genell This dissertation is an analysis of the Ottoman-European legal contest over Egypt. I explore the relationship between international law, imperial expansion and state formation in the late Ottoman Empire against the joint reconfiguration of ideas of sovereignty and imperial control during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The British occupation of Egypt (1882-1914) was a novel experiment in quasi-colonial administration, where legal justifications for the occupation demanded the retention of Ottoman institutions and shaped administrative practices. My research examines the significance and consequences of maintaining Ottoman sovereignty in Egypt during the British occupation in an effort to explain the formation of a distinctive model of sovereignty, both for late empires and for successor states in the post-Ottoman Middle East. I argue that a new model of client-state sovereignty, produced during the course of the occupation, emerged out of the intense imperial rivalry between the Ottoman and Europe Empires in Egypt. This model had lasting significance more generally for how we define states and sovereignty today. These findings recast the Ottoman Empire as a major, albeit weak, actor in European diplomacy. Though Ottoman and European history have developed as separate fields of academic inquiry, my research shows that nineteenth and early twentieth century European and Ottoman political practices and ideas were inextricably intertwined.

The dissertation argues that state failure is a condition partly constructed by the leading actors of international society. The study advances a three-part framework for analysis to understand how leading states and their close allies interpret what constitutes a state failure and how an interventionist policy response is formulated.
