Relating the foundation period, all the books rely on the ghaza thesis. The Ottoman Empire of the classical age is appreciated for its centralist administration, efficient army, and tolerance toward non-Muslims. However, all the books accept the decline paradigm, and, because of the increased focus of the books of the 1990s and after on the “period of decline,” the Ottoman image they project is a more negative one. The books relate a story of deterioration in all respects following the sixteenth century. The Ottoman government is criticized for its violent suppression of the Balkan revolts. Most Tanzimat-era reforms are considered to have been ineffectual. The Abdulhamid government is criticized for its oppressive rule, and the Young Turks for their ethnocentric policies. The wars in Gallipoli and Palestine are generally told from a British perspective. The older books’ narrative of the developments concerning the Armenians is closer to Turkey’s official theses than that of the more recent books.

Food safety was considered a major component of the public health policies. An important point of contention became food adulteration. Due to the increase of commodity circulation throughout the world in the nineteenth century this emerged as a serious problem. By the middle of the 19th century, the Ottoman Empire was also incorporated into the capitalist world economy, which inevitably led to a high level of commodity flow into the domestic market. In the given circumstances, also the Ottoman authorities had to take measures against food adulteration. However, some of these measure impeded with the free trade agreements signed in this period which resulted in the involvement of foreign embassies. This article will examine the preoccupation of the authorities with food safety by delineating adulterated olive oil in the Ottoman Empire.

Sevinç III. Selim yönetimi 18. yüzyıl sonlarında askeri ve mali alanlardaki dönüşümler kapsamında, taşradaki kazaların masraflarını ve bunlarla ilgili suistimalleri hedefleyen bazı düzenlemeler yaptı. Bu çerçevede taşra ahalisinin mali yükünü azaltmak ve taşradaki yerel güçleri kontrol altına almak için nâzır olarak tabir edilen görevliler tayin edildi. Mali alanın nâzırları olarak, defâtir nâzırları merkezde, defter nâzırları ise gerektiğinde bizzat kazalara giderek, sözkonusu masraflarla ilgili tutulan tevzî‘ defterlerinin hazırlanması ve masrafların ahaliden toplanması süreçlerine nezaret etmekle görevlendirildiler. Tevzî‘ defterlerindeki masraf kayıtları kazalara tayin edilen devlet görevlilerinin ve ayanların yönetim alanlarını nasıl kurguladıklarına, ne tür ittifaklar kurduklarına, yahut hangi yerel güçlerle mücadele ettiklerine ve en nihayetinde taşranın merkezle olan güç çatışmalarına dair önemli ipuçları vermektedir. Bu çalışma, tevzi defterleri ile ilgili arşiv kayıtlarına dayanarak, merkezden görevlendirilen mali nâzırların 1790’lar taşrasındaki sosyo-ekonomik rolü ve etkisini anlamaya çalışmakta, buradan hareketle bu görevlilerin Osmanlı Devleti’nin merkezileşme çabalarındaki yerini incelemektedir. Çalışma neticesinde taşraya gönderilen defter nâzırlarının sadece ayanların değil aynı zamanda taşrada olan diğer devlet görevlilerinin de güçlerini sınırlandırmak, merkez için tehlikeli olabilecek taşra aktörleri üzerine bilgi toplamak açısından önemli oldukları görülmüştür. Bu anlamda merkeziyetçi politikalara ve merkezin otoritesinin ahali nezdinde sağlamlaştırılmasına katkıda bulunmuşlardır.

It has great strategic importance for protecting the Transylvania region. Timişoara which was under Ottoman rule for a long time, remained the seat of an Ottoman administrative unit even after the 1699 Treaty of Karlowitz. But when the Austro-Turkish War started, Timişoara was put on the agenda again. In 1716, Damad Ali Pasha’s Petrovaradin expedition ended with a great defeat, and then the Habsburgs first directed their forces against Timişoara, the capital of the Banat region/plain, and not against Belgrade. Timişoara was the last Ottoman fortification on the northern side of the Danube and Ottomans could not provide enough support there. The town resisted for a long time, but it surrendered when the expected relief did not come. Tue, 01 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12723/2519 2019-01-01T00:00:00Z
