Sponsored by: The Global, Trade, Transportation and Logistics (GTTL) Annual Conference June 4 Was there ever a `Northwest Frontier'? Persia and India from Alexander the Great to Alexander Cunningham. 1:30 PM, 226 Communications. Speaker: Richard Eaton, Department of History, University of Arizona. Two centuries of British imperial rule and several decades of Hindutva propaganda have constructed a `Maginot Line' along the eastern rim of the Iranian plateau, conceptually walling off the `Middle East' from South Asia, or even Islamic from Hindu civilizations. Although geographers, historians, and political scientists continue to behave as though this line were real, the talk will examine numismatic, architectural, and political historical evidence to challenge the whole notion of a Kiplingesque `Northwest Frontier'. Sponsored by the South Asia Center, the Jackson School of International Studies, UW Department of History, UW Libraries and the Simpson Center for the Humanities.
