-- Introduction: Ottoman political history in the early modern period -- One market, one money, one law : the making of an imperial market society and a law that applies to all -- The question of succession : bringing the dynasty under legal supervision -- The court strikes back : the making of Ottoman absolutism -- A new empire for a second Osman : Osman II in power (1618-1622) -- The absolutist dispensation overturned : a regicide -- The second empire goes public : the age of the Janissaries -- Conclusion: Early modernity and the Ottoman decline.
"Although scholars have begun to revise the traditional view that the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries marked a decline in the fortunes of the Ottoman Empire, Baki Tezcan's book proposes a radical new approach to this period. While he concurs that decline did take place in certain areas, he constructs a new framework by foregrounding the proto-democratization of the Ottoman polity in this era. Focusing on the background and the aftermath of the regicide of Osman II, he shows how the empire embarked on a period of seismic change in the political, economic, military, and social spheres. It is this period--from roughly 1580 to 1826--that the author labels "the second empire," and that he sees as no less than the transformation of the patrimonial, medieval, dynastic institution into a fledgling limited monarchy. The book is essentially a post-revisionist history of the late Ottoman Empire that will make a major contribution not only to Ottoman scholarship but also to comparable trends in world history"--Provided by publisher.
