AbstractThis article examines the Ottoman extension of rule and jurisdiction to the Beersheba frontier of southern Palestine. As part of itsTanzimatreform policies, the Ottoman administration founded the new town and sub-district of Beersheba in 1900, and sought to implement a legal reform. Deviating from the formal law that requires the founding of a civil-nizamiye court, the Ottoman instituted a form of legal exception and authorized the local administrative council to sit as a judicial forum and for its Bedouin Shaykh members to serve as judges.

In the eighteenth century, European embassies in the Ottoman Empire started selling exemption licenses calledberats, which granted non-Muslim Ottomans tax exemptions and the option to use European law.

Abstract:
Ottoman law, as a field of study, has continued to attract the attention of both historians and jurists for a considerable time. In addition to historians such as Ömer Lütfi Barkan and Halil İnalcık, legal historians such as Coşkun Üçok, Ahmet Mumcu, Mehmet Akif Aydın, Ahmet Akgündüz have discussed Ottoman law both theoretically and in terms of sources. Thanks to the studies on thousands of volumes of legal texts that have survived to the present day thanks to the bureaucratic structure of the Ottoman Empire, we can follow the nature of Ottoman law, the relation

Abstract:
Abstract The introduction of legal reforms in the sixteenth century that gave the Hanafi school its central place in the Ottoman legal system coincided with the arrival of new trade partners from the West, first France and later England and the Dutch Republic. The Ottoman authorities’ own emphasis on the primacy of written proof and the marginalization of oral testimony was also reflected in the privileges granted to these new arrivals from the West. Although many European ambassadors and consuls distrusted “Turkish justice”, the Ottoman legal system’s stability and predictability contributed

AbstractThis article focuses on the jurisdictional conflicts that emerged at the juncture of the transplanted legalities that followed the Caucasian expulsion in the 1850s and 1860s, the proclamation of the proto-constitution known as the Ottoman Reform Edict of 1856, and the internationally enforced ban on trading in African slaves in 1857. Starting with the Caucasian expulsion, it traces how legal practices were carried over with Caucasian refugees to the Ottoman domains and how the judicial management of slavery-related conflicts determined not only the limits of slavery, but also how such

Abstract:
AbstractIn the Western sources, the Ottoman legal system is often portrayed as unreliable and incidents of Europeans or Ottoman protégés of Western embassies and consulates who claimed to have been maltreated abound. These reports strengthened the common notion in Europe that Ottoman government officials were rapacious and corrupt. The article challenges these views by analyzing two incidents from 18th-century Aleppo, which shed light not only on the dynamics of Ottoman-European relations on the ground, but also on the status of non-Muslim elites in the Ottoman Empire.

Eventually, the merchant and his family were able to escape to Habsburg Trieste with their lives and most of their fortune secured.

Abstract This chapter studies honor in the Ottoman legal praxis, particularly concerning the new Tanzimat penal codes of the nineteenth century. It mainly focuses on the 1858 Penal Code as the first criminal code that codified honor extensively in a comprehensive section devoted to various sexual offenses. It argues that the centralizing state of the Tanzimat expanded its control over the private sphere of its subjects. The state claimed to assert itself as the supreme arbiter of morality by entrusting women’s sexuality to its male subjects to control. Nevertheless, this gendered construction

In mainstream historical films, neo-Ottomanism is brought to the fore. The heroisation of the Ottoman past is conducted through the depiction of Turkish military glory. At the same time, acute ethno-confessional issues are ignored, and Turkey is represented as a homeland of many peoples. Religious myths are used to support the idea of Turkey as the l
