By conceptualizing the period from the 1870s to 1920s as the age of steam and print, Nile Green has shown how industrialization provided Muslim intellectuals and activists with ample opportunities to defy colonial power structures and pursue their anti-imperialist agendas. Indeed, there are countless examples of colonial subjects who availed themselves of imperial institutions in subversive manners, as eloquently demonstrated by the work of Michael Laffan. In addition, a number of historians have begun to consider how the global infrastructure of European colonialism enabled fugitives, political dissidents, and outcasts of all walks of life to connect to a variety of currents of thought such as anarchism, socialism, constitutionalism, nationalism, and Islamic reformism.
