Publication Metadata only A nineteenth-century urban ottoman population micro dataset: data extraction and relational database curation from the 1840s pre-census bursa population registers(Nature Portfolio, 2024) Department of History; Kabadayı, Mustafa Erdem; Erünal, Efe; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; Graduate School of Social Sciences and HumanitiesIn recent decades, the "big microdata revolution" has transformed access to transcribed historical census data for social science research. However, the population records of the Ottoman Empire, spanning Southeastern Europe, Western Asia, and Northern Africa, remained inaccessible to the big microdata ecosystem due to their prolonged unavailability. This publication marks the inaugural release of complete population data for an Ottoman urban center, Bursa, derived from the 1839 population registers. The dataset presents originally non-tabulated register data in a tabular format integrated into a relational Microsoft Access database. Thus, we showcase the extensive and diverse data found in the Ottoman population registers, demonstrating a level of quality and sophistication akin to the censuses conducted worldwide in the nineteenth century. This valuable resource, whose potential has been massively underexploited, is now presented in an accessible format compatible with global microdata repositories. Our aim with this dataset is to enable historical demographic studies for the Ottoman realm and beyond, while also broadening access to the datasets constructed by our large research team.Publication Metadata only The fascist temptation: British and Italian imperial entanglements in the Eastern Mediterranean(Cambridge University Press, 2024) Department of History; Rappas, Alexis; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and HumanitiesThis article reveals how, in the interwar period, British colonial authorities in Cyprus borrowed from the combination of political authoritarianism and economic development characterising Italian rule in the neighbouring Dodecanese, as both a solution to Greek irredentism and an administration suitable to ‘Mediterranean populations’. British authorities shunned, nonetheless, the chronopolitics and biopolitics buttressing fascist governance, which aimed at the political and cultural assimilation of Dodecanesians into the Italian national community. In conversation with the literature on imperial formations, the article therefore highlights the forms and limitations of the circulation of administrative practices and ideas across European colonial boundaries.Publication Metadata only The small, the big, and the ugly: persistent challenges of thinking about lviv's Ukrainization(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2020) Department of History; Amar, Tarık Youssef Cyril; Other; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 294014Publication Metadata only Rethinking nationalism - state projects and community networks in 19th-century Ottoman Empire(Sage Publications Inc, 2008) N/A; Department of History; Köksal, Yonca; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 53333This article challenges the idea that a centralized administrative infrastructure, a common citizenship, and the resulting national belonging run in the same direction in state transformations. Comparing two Ottoman provinces of Edirne and Ankara, the author argues that community networks influence local responses to administrative centralization and national identity formation. In the province of Edirne, dense communal networks that bridged religious and ethnic boundaries maintained local cooperation with state centralization, whereas dense relations within religious and ethnic communities contributed to the failure of the formation of Ottoman national identity. In the province of Ankara, the lack of dense relations connecting different communities prevented reform success in both administrative and ideological dimensions.Publication Metadata only Great catastrophe: Armenians and Turks in the shadow of genocide(Cambridge Univ Press, 2018) Department of History; Polatel, Mehmet; Researcher; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/APublication Metadata only Russian and soviet diplomacy, 1900-39(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2013) Department of History; McMeekin, Sean; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and HumanitiesPublication Metadata only The end of Byzantium(The University of Chicago Press, 2012) N/A; Department of History; Magdalino, Paul; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/AN/APublication Metadata only Soviet russians under Nazi occupation: fragile loyalties in World War II(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2021) Department of History; Amar, Tarık Youssef Cyril; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 294014Publication Metadata only The Eunuch in Byzantine history and society(Center Byzantine Ottoman Modern Greek Studies, 2011) N/A; Department of History; Magdalino, Paul; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/AN/APublication Metadata only The fascist temptation: British and Italian imperial entanglements in the Eastern Mediterranean(Cambridge Univ Press) N/A; Department of History; Rappas, Alexis; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 50773This article reveals how, in the interwar period, British colonial authorities in Cyprus borrowed from the combination of political authoritarianism and economic development characterising Italian rule in the neighbouring Dodecanese, as both a solution to Greek irredentism and an administration suitable to 'Mediterranean populations'.
