Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex and often misunderstood system of real property ownership in the Ottoman Empire. The author delves into the intricacies of Ottoman law, revealing how both religious law (Sharia) and secular ordinances (Kanoun) shaped the landholding landscape. The book explores the historical and legal foundations of property rights in Ottoman lands, examining the distinction between lands belonging to the State (emiriah) and privately held lands (mulh). It also delves into the unique system of taxes, including the tithe (ushur) and tribute (kharadj), which served as a way to classify and differentiate land ownership. Beyond these legal intricacies, the book analyzes the societal and economic consequences of Ottoman landholding practices. The author highlights the role of feudalism in shaping land tenure, particularly the system of Zia/mets and Timars, and explores how these practices contributed to the lack of agricultural development and economic stagnation. The book ultimately provides a compelling and nuanced account of real property ownership in the Ottoman Empire, shedding light on a pivotal aspect of Ottoman society and its enduring impact on the region.
