This course will discuss the methods of governance in the Ottoman Empire. It will include environmental, inter-confessional, regional and provincial governance as well as temporal and territorial politics in both the eastern and western parts of the empire. Destitute women, migrant workers, children and taxation in relation to labour and the management of labour will be an essential part of our discussions. Likewise, crime, criminality and incarceration will be considered part and parcel of methods of governance.
