The Politics of Reproduction in Ottoman Society, 1838–1900, Paperback / softback Book

The Politics of Reproduction in Ottoman Society, 1838–1900 Paperback / softback

Part of the "The Body, Gender and Culture" series

Paperback / softback

Description

Epidemics, migration and territorial losses led to population decline in early nineteenth-century Turkey.

In response, Ottoman elites began a programme of population growth.

Balsoy uses previously untapped archival sources to examine these developments, arguing that these changes caused reproduction to become a political experience.
