Governing Property, Making the Modern State: Law, Administration and Production in Ottoman Syria
Martha Mundy
Was 'modernity' in the Middle East an imported piecemeal from the West? Did Ottoman society really consist of islands of sophistication in a sea of tribal conservatism, as has often been claimed? Not only affecting the way we look at Ottoman society, this book aims to change our understanding of the relationship between East, West and modernity.
