Abstract:
Law's Empire is a bold and ambitious attempt to provide a philosophical framework which will serve to install the judicial perspective as the preferred perspective from which to think about theories of law. The heart of its argument is that judicial determination of what constitutes law is an exercise in constructive interpretation. Judges have the responsibility to seek that story of the law that both fits reasonably with its past political history and constitutes the best justification that can be given of the legal practices of the society as a whole. They are engaged in finding an account consistent with the history of the practice that displays the point, purpose(s) and values that the law serves to express and uphold, and so brings out most fully the law's claim to authority as a legitimate expression of governmental power in that society. Dworkin believes that the interpretation of law that best satisfies these conditions is law as integrity, which conceives of law as expressing a coherent set of principles embodying those substantive ideas of justice, fairness and procedural fairness that are respected in the community. Integrity tells judges to identify legal rights and duties as though they were all created by a single author, the community personified, as an embodiment of a coherent conception of justice and fairness to which the community subscribes. In this way, integrity requires judges to interpret the rules of law as having a principled justification in a network of values and moral principles that the society adopts.

Abstract:
Conventionally, the era that begins after the death of celebrated Ottoman sultan Suleyman I in 1566 is seen as the beginning of Ottoman decline. In line with the decline paradigm, late sixteenth century is also accepted as a time of political turmoil. This period is characterized by constant power struggles among Ottoman ruling elite and the deterioration of the classical Ottoman political order. Concerning the rise of new power elite (favourites) in the court and bureaucracy vis-a-vis the decreasing power of the sultans and grand vezirs, "evil counsellors" and the inaccessibility of the Ottoman sultan were chronic themes in the Ottoman Empire. Yet, at the same time, in most of the Ottoman political treatises access to and privacy with the sultan is restricted to a very limited number of the servants of the court and bureaucracy. Especially the communication between the sultan and the grand vezir is advised to be a secret. In view of this important political dictum, in the present study it is argued that the power also came from and built by the monopoly on information about the matters of state by the least number of people. In accordance with this view, the power politics of the late sixteenth century Ottoman political arena is analyzed as struggles over controlling the flow of information about the matters of state.

Full text
Abstract:
“Opportunities of Empire” is a collective biography of three uncommon commoners in the early American republic: Richard O’Brien (1758–1824), James Cathcart (1767–1843) and James Riley (1777-1840). As a biographical microhistory, this study explores how these three ordinary citizens engaged in self-making on the maritime and western frontiers, and in doing so, influenced and reflected American nation-building and the development of concepts of liberty, masculinity and nationhood in the early republic and throughout the Jacksonian era. To date, no study has taken a biographical approach to any of the hundreds of American sailors who were held as “white slaves” in the North African “Barbary States.” Biographies of American sailors are typically of distinguished and long-serving naval officers, not of merchant sailors who averaged just 5-10 years at sea. The whole lives of the three subjects of this dissertation therefore provide an ideal opportunity for a fine-grained bottom-up study of how sailors’ meandering life courses influenced and reflected America’s physical, ideological, commercial and diplomatic development. These three men’s lives reflect the wide range of occupational and personal experiences of ordinary and extraordinary Americans of their generation, dramatically intersecting with domestic, transnational and ideological developments in early American nation-building. They tended to New England farms and, during the Revolutionary War, served as sailors in the Continental, Massachusetts and Virginia State Navies. Later they were merchant sailors; captives in the Barbary States; advisors to a foreign Muslim ruler; and soon after securing their freedom they returned to North Africa as American consuls. They went on to become, variously: state politicians; frontiersmen; surveyors in the West; land speculators; authors; and federal bureaucrats. This range of experiences intimately connect fields of United States historiography that scholars typically examine in isolation from one another, including: the self-interest of sailors in the Revolution; America’s place in the world following the Revolution; the development of an American national identity; American Orientalism; “white slavery” in the Barbary States; early American war-making in the First Barbary War; the politically-inspired nature of American masculinity; the merchant-consul system that dominated American diplomatic representation abroad until 1856; Jacksonian era democracy and the spoils system; and territorial expansion with its accompanying “taming of the wilderness.” O’Brien’s, Cathcart’s and Riley’s experiences in these myriad fields, on both the maritime and western frontiers, reflect the haphazard path of self-made men during the early republic. Lacking the innate genius of Benjamin Franklin and Alexander Hamilton, typical self-made men depended upon luck and adaptability to secure financial independence and public recognition. The literary and professional contributions of these three sailors also became part of a revolutionary democratization of knowledge, the “Village Enlightenment,” whereby publications of non-elite citizens upended both the production and consumption of knowledge in the fields of law, science, medicine, exploration and religion. While the self-made man celebrated the upward mobility of the ordinary individual, the Village Enlightenment saw ordinary individuals circumvent the professional elites and publish personal insights, thus enabling mass self-making of new generations in the young republic.

Abstract:
Major attempts to control the natural environment characterized government ‘developmental' activity in twentieth-century Sind. This thesis argues that the construction of three barrage dams across the River Indus, along with a network of irrigation canals, enacted human control over nature as a political project. The Raj and its successor state in Sind, Pakistan, thereby claimed legitimacy through their capacity to benefit humans by re-modelling the landscape. These claims depended on an implied narrative of material progress, which irrigation development was expected to bring about, in a province considered technologically and socially backward. In allocating land that was newly made available for cultivation, government officials found an unprecedented opportunity to also re-shape agrarian society. As well as providing the means by which ‘ideal types' of cultivator could be encouraged to proliferate, the development of Sind's irrigation system was based on concepts of modernization that promoted increasing state intervention in agrarian life to render a ‘disordered' society more easily governable. This trend was constrained, however, by successive administrations' need to balance the lure of radical modernization against the powerful claims on new land of local magnates. The colonial belief in the agricultural, economic, and social benefits of large-scale irrigation projects was transplanted into the post-colonial state. The construction of irrigation works, the colonization of land, and their political implications before and after Independence are therefore analyzed, in order to demonstrate how and why the logic of large infrastructure schemes remained consistent. At the same time, differences in how successive administrations framed and enacted barrage projects are shown to have depended on contemporary circumstances. In the process, the thesis sheds new light on the tensions between and within the central and provincial governments, demonstrating the contested nature of concepts of Imperial governance, nation-building, and material progress.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis attempts to understand the distribution of Antinous worship in the Roman Empire and why he was worshipped. By examining the written sources and material culture available on Antinous, primary sources both pagan and Christian, and material culture such as the sculptures of Antinous, Antinoopolis and temples dedicated to Antinous, I came to the conclusion that Antinous was worshipped primary in the Eastern part of the Roman Empire. The Eastern part of the Roman Empire consisted of people who were of Greek descent. By examining Roman writings against Greek people and culture, I came to the conclusion that there were reasons that people worshipped Antinous. The first was to connect to the imperial center because a Roman emperor established the cult of Antinous. The second was that Antinous was Greek, and because Greeks were seen as inferior by the Roman west, his worship appealed to such people.

Abstract:

Transnational networks are growing in prevalence and importance as states, nongovernmental, and intergovernmental organizations seek to meet climate change goals; yet, the organizations in these networks struggle between the global, technical and local, contextual sources of power, authority, and knowledge used to influence decision-making and governance. This dissertation analyzes these contestations in Pacific Islands climate change diplomacy and governance efforts by asking: i) What do power relations look like among the Pacific Islands’ networked organizations? ii) To what authority do organizations appeal to access sources of power? iii) What sources of knowledge are produced and reproduced by these organizations? and iv) How do these patterns fit within the broader history of the Pacific Islands and climate change? I draw from interviews, document analysis, event participation, and social network analysis of Pacific Island climate change diplomacy and governance. This examination leads me to propose the concept of "Climate Empire,” which can be understood as the network of knowledge and communicative services that imagine, build, and administer the globe through a decentralized and deterritorialized apparatus of rule.

In the Pacific Islands, Climate Empire upholds technical bureaucratic and scientific approaches to overcoming climate challenges; however, the global spaces in which these approaches are produced are reconnected with the spaces of local resistance through data collection networks and efforts to relocalize knowledge. Thus, the local/global divisions found in diplomacy and governance in the Pacific Islands collectively produce and reform Climate Empire as organizations interact in the network. Further research is necessary to understand the extensiveness of Climate Empire, as well as to ensure the inclusion and empowerment of Pacific Island voices in climate governance for both justice and efficacy.

Abstract:
Ukraine and russia – as states, as cultures, as peoples – for centuries have each built their own strategy for happiness. After all, everyone wants happiness, but everyone goes to him in their own way. And individual communities, individual lifeworlds produce a common vision of happiness, which is very stable, woven into the way of life of these communities – it's really their life-world, that is, their way to live in the world, their way to live their world different from others. In fact, separate life-worlds of happiness are formed. Most communities coexist peacefully, each building their own happiness, but there are situations when building their own happiness is possible only in the battle for it with another community. Russia as an empire cannot get its happiness without enslaving Ukraine. Ukraine, as an independent state, cannot achieve its happiness until this independence is recognized by russia as an empire. But this is impossible for russia. The desire to humiliate another and only in this way to establish their identity - this is the basis of happiness for supporters and representatives of the empire. It is clear that such assertion of the happiness by empires leaves very little place for achievement of happiness by supporters of independent Ukraine. One thing remains – Ukraine's battle with russia as an empire. Ukraine must fight russia as an empire until russia ceases to be one. Key words: happiness, battle for happiness, happiness of communities, happiness as a life-world, Ukraine, russia

Abstract:
In the 19th century, the foci of the spatial change in the capital of the Ottoman Empire were the squares dating back to the previous period. As buildings were endowed by their builders, the Byzantine forums had disappeared during the Ottoman Empire. During this period, the only place known and named as a square was the Hippodrome (Atmeydanı). To the south of Hagia Sophia, a part of the old Augustaion, whose exact boundaries cannot be determined, turned into a neighborhood. After the fire in 1913 which demolished the neighborhood, the area once more transformed into a square (Hagia Sophia Square). Today, this area is called Sultanahmet Square and is home to one of the first modern indicators of the period, the Darülfünun building, inaugurated in 1863 as university but later used as the Ministry of Justice building. In the blocks overlooking the square, a project for the Zaptieh building to replace the old Finance Administration building came to the fore in 1869, and later in 1871, the first model Central Prison was built next to the Ibrahim Pasha Palace. However, it was demolished in 1939 when the Courthouse was being built, and the prisoners were transferred to the Sultanahmet Jail, built in the “New Ottoman” style in 1918 to the east of Darülfünun. Decorated with symbols of power since the Byzantine, this square continued to be the “central square of the Empire” with different manifestations in the 19th century.

Abstract:
The authors present the coins discovered during the archaeological excavations carried out in 1993, 2001-2003, 2005-2008 and 2016. During the archaeological excavations at the Căpriana Monastery, 132 coins were discovered in the necropolis of the founders inside the Church of the Dormition of the Mother of God, within the filling soil under the floor of the church, in the necropolis around the church, in the wall of a building located to the west of the church, as well as in the cultural layer around the church. A total of 36 coins discovered inside the church come from 10 graves and its cultural layer, while the coins discovered in the necropolis around the church come from 7 graves. From the total number of 88 investigated graves, coins were discovered in 17 burial complexes (19%). Most of the graves contain a single coin, in grave 39 2 coins were found, in grave 56 24 pieces were deposited, representing a small treasure, and in another case (grave 18) a monetary deposit consisting of 83 coins was found. The coins deposited in graves represent several monetary areas. The European ones are issues of the Kingdom of Poland and the Holy German Empire issued starting from the third decade of the 16th century and up to 1627. Most of the coins from Căpriana come from the Ottoman Empire, representing coins issued in the 18th century, but also two copies with a large denomination - ikilik, issued by Selim III, being the most recent coins from the tombs.

Abstract:
This project refers to the construction of a 3D map of Thessaloniki’s historical route. The Yedi Kule Conquest – Monument Road Race took place in the old city of Thessaloniki, which was built during the Byzantine and Ottoman period. The purpose of this project is the digital recording of the castles, the monuments, the old churches, the traditional buildings, and the squares which are prime examples of the architectural beauty of the place. The methodology of the project is based on the online software Google Earth Studio and Adobe Premiere Pro. These are the tools of digitization, rendering, and building process of the animation. With this methodology, the authors achieved the documentation of land use and the architectural landscape. The animation is a credible graphic index of the historical background of Thessaloniki. The Yedi Kule area constitutes of a cultural mosaic made from different historic periods. The buildings and the neighbourhoods give the sense of transition of the narrow roads, the old Christian churches, the house of the first Turkish governor, and the byzantine castle to the modern city. In Thessaloniki, three historic periods coexist the Ancient Greek/Roman, the Byzantine, and Ottoman Empire. The responsibility of the governmental politics and of every citizen of Thessaloniki is to promote and preserve the historic background of the city. The final product offers a good opportunity for the digital storage of Thessaloniki’s old city. The animation creates an interactive environment that portrays the current image of the transition from the old to a modern city.

Abstract:
Pasha was one of the most prominent Ottoman governors who ruled Baghdad during the rule of the Ottoman Empire, and he was also one of the most important administrative reformers in the city, as he was appointed as its governor in (1869 AD), so he assumed the task of the Ottoman state’s control over the Arab Gulf countries such as (Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Al-Ahsa We find). This study acquires its importance through the important administrative reforms that Medhat Pasha undertook in Baghdad, so we dealt with it in this research in some detail, as his reforms in the fields of (education, mail, health, administration, and construction, etc.) were of great importance in administrative and urban development. For the city of Baghdad, as it established the first building blocks for establishing a solid central administrative system and distinguished urban development. Perhaps one of the most prominent objectives of this study is to shed light on the important reforms of Governor Medhat Pasha in the city of Baghdad, especially in the administrative, urban, educational and other fields, and to stand on each one of them in order to demonstrate its importance and impact on Al-Baghdadi society. As for the problem of this study, it lies in the disclosure of many challenges that coincided with the reforms of Medhat Pasha, which caused a qualitative shift in the administrative system in Baghdad, the most prominent of which was the popular revolution by the people of this city following the imposition of compulsory conscription, even though the governor faced it And he was able to control it and where he did not stop his reforms, whose effects and features remain fresh to this day. He regretted that Medhat Pasha did not help him with his reforms at the Sublime Porte, so the intrigues and plots were trampled upon him, and he was subsequently transferred to the state of Izmir and he was arrested on charges of killing Sultan Abdul Aziz. The judgment was not executed, so he ordered his exile to the city of Taif, and he died in prison in 1883AD.
