Partners of the Empire offers a radical rethinking of the Ottoman Empire in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Over this unstable period, the Ottoman Empire faced political crises, institutional shakeups, and popular insurrections. It responded through various reform options and settlements. New institutional configurations emerged; constitutional texts were codifiedand annulled. The empire became a political theater where different actors struggled, collaborated, and competed on conflicting agendas and opposing interests.This book takes a holistic look at the era, interested not simply in central reforms or in regional developments, but in their interactions. Drawing on original archival sources, Ali Yaycioglu uncovers the patterns of political actionthe making and unmaking of coalitions, forms of building and losing power, and expressions of public opinion. Countering common assumptions, he shows that the Ottoman transformation in the Age of Revolutions was not a linear transition from the old order to the new, from decentralized state to centralized, from Eastern to Western institutions, or from premodern to modern. Rather, it was a condensed period of transformation that counted many crossing paths, as well as deadends, all of which offered a rich repertoire of governing possibilities to be followed, reinterpreted, or ultimately forgotten.
