Hurst is an independently owned non-fiction publisher based in central London. Hurst marked its 50th anniversary in 2019, which gave us a chance to celebrate our strengths as an independent publisher offering a fresh look at pressing issues and important history. We enjoyed reflecting on the recognition often given to our list, in both prize shortlistings and winnings and reliably great media coverage, disproportionate to the size of the press. We publish approximately 90 new books per year, building on our core lists in African Studies, Islamic & Middle Eastern Studies, South Asian Studies, History, War & Conflict, and International Relations. Our bestsellers include Lost Islamic History, The Northumbrians, Inglorious Empire, The Accidental Guerrilla, The Road to Somewhere, Stealing from the Saracens, African Europeans, and Across an Angry Sea.
Among our celebrated authors are Africanists Olivette Otele, Gérard Prunier, Stephen Ellis and Susan Williams; renowned thinkers on South Asia Shashi Tharoor, Alpa Shah, Christophe Jaffrelot and Faisal Devji; historians Michael 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 David Goodhart, 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, Kristian Coates-Ulrichsen Adriane M. Tabatabai, and Jean-Pierre Filiu.
Our scholarly 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.
