This course aims to discuss the late Ottoman history between 1789 and 1908. The course will focus on the main economic, political and social events in this period. We will focus on the transformation of the economy, institutional changes, demographic movements and the main political issues. However, besides having a grasp of the main developments in this period, this course also has a major conceptual aim, which is to analyze the changing nature of the Ottoman state. Therefore, the functions of state, the forces behind change, conflicting interests within the Ottoman political, and the evolution of social structures are important issues to be discussed in this class. | |
