Simon Jackson is coordinator of the ‘Commodities of Empire’, and Lecturer in Modern Middle Eastern History at the University of Birmingham, where he directs the Centre for Modern & Contemporary History. With the support of a Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellowship, he is completing a book on the global political economy of French rule in Syria and Lebanon after World War One, and co-editing another, forthcoming with Routledge in 2017, on the interrelationship of the League of Nations and the United Nations.
