About Hurst Publishers

'At a time of rapid and dislocating change, no range of books casts a more valuable light onto the convulsions of the present than those published by Hurst.' – Tom Holland Independently owned and run, Hurst has been publishing groundbreaking non-fiction on global affairs for over fifty years. We publish approximately 90 new books per year, building on our strengths in African Studies, Islamic & Middle Eastern Studies, South Asian Studies, History, War & Conflict, and International Relations. More broadly, however, we commission anything that interests us, from architecture to yoga, as long as the books have something to distinguish them. Our books are reviewed regularly in high profile media outlets worldwide, including The Economist, The Sunday Times, Financial Times, The Guardian, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Foreign Affairs and many others. Among our celebrated authors are Africanists Olivette Otele, Gérard Prunier, Stephen Ellis and Susan Williams; renowned scholars of South Asia Alpa Shah, Christophe Jaffrelot and Faisal Devji; historians William Burleigh, Peter Kornicki, and Priya Atwal; strategists and security experts David Kilcullen, Sir David Omand, William J. Burns, and Nigel Inkster; economist Vicky Pryce; journalists Jess Hill, Hsiao-Hung Pai, Jasper Becker, Sarah Jaffe, and Stephen Vines; political scientists Bruno Maçães and Brian Klaas; and experts on Islam and the Muslim world Madawi Al-Rasheed, Ziauddin Sardar, Adriane M. Tabatabai, and Jean-Pierre Filiu. Our books are subject to rigorous anonymous peer review procedures, in part thanks to a unique and thriving co-publishing agreement with Oxford University Press, New York. Our titles are published or distributed by OUP in the Americas, and those that are approved by the editorial board wear the OUP livery there.
