Irrigating the Desert

Water Management, Agricultural Practices, and Social Complexity in Southern Turkmenistan during the Bronze Age

2025 || Paperback || Roberto Arciero || Leiden University Press

Ancient civilizations often developed near major rivers, like in Egypt and Mesopotamia. In Central Asia, the Murghab alluvial fan in southern Turkmenistan was central to the emergence of the Bactria-Margiana Archaeological Complex (BMAC), also known as the Oxus Civilization, during the third and second millennia BCE. The local alluvial fan was central for the productive agriculture at the basis of the region's urban centers and the wealth that accumulated in these societies.

The Early and Middle Pleistocene Archaeological Record of Greece / druk 1

Current status and future prospects

2010 || Paperback || V. Tourloukis || Leiden University Press

By applying a fieldwork-based, geoarchaeological approach, Tourloukis examines in this study the evidence from Greece within the framework of the earliest occupation of Europe. Although the Greek Peninsula lies within a core area of early hominin movements between Africa and Europe but also within Eurasia itself, the Lower Palaeolithic record of Greece remains as yet extremely poor.

Choosing the scanty Greek record as a case-study, Tourloukis elaborates on a hitherto largely overlooked subjec...

Debates on Islam and Society: Politics and Change

the Indonesian experience after the fall of Suharto

2016 || Paperback || Kees van Dijk e.a. || Leiden University Press

After violent protests across the country had forced President Suharto to step down in 1998, Indonesia successfully made the transition from an authoritarian state to a democracy. For the first time in forty years Islamic parties and organizations - including some inspired by the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood - were free to propagate their ways of thinking. The new government also succeeded in negotiating an end to a separatist rebellion in Aceh, making the province the only region in Indonesia...

The powers that be

rethinking the separation of powers

2016 || Paperback || Hans-Martien ten Napel e.a. || Leiden University Press

In 2013 Christoph Möllers published his impressive monograph, "The Three Branches.A Comparative Model of Separation of Powers". This inspirational book led to the idea to pitch it against both the agenda of us as researchers of the Institute of Public Law at Leiden Law School and our own insights, as well as that of fellow scholars in the field.

Both democratic legitimacy and the separation of powers as concepts have very much evolved alongside the state. However, over the last decades the s...

The Fall and Rise of Blasphemy Law

2018 || Paperback || Paul Cliteur e.a. || Leiden University Press

This collection centers around two trends that currently influence freedom of expression. The first trend confirms the fact that many Western countries have become, over a long period of time, less strict about sacrilegious expression. In the process, many repealed their blasphemy laws or became less harsh in their punishment of blasphemy, hence "the fall of blasphemy law".

The second trend manifests an opposite movement, hence "the rise of blasphemy law". Over the last decades, namely, West...
