The Rise and Fall of the Notables Paradigm? Why it Has Taken so Long
Comparative and Global Framing of Enslavement
The study of enslavement has become urgent over the last two decades. Social scientists, legal scholars, human rights activists, and historians, who study forms of enslavement in both modern and historical societies, have sought – and often achieved – common conceptual grounds, thus forging a new perspective that comprises historical and contemporary forms of slavery. What could certainly be termed a turn in the study of slavery has also intensif…
Comparative and Global Framing of Enslavement
Models of Global Enslavement
As If Silent and Absent
This groundbreaking book reconceptualizes slavery through the voices of enslaved persons themselves, voices that have remained silent in the narratives of conventional history. Focusing in particular on the Islamic Middle East from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century, Ehud R. Toledano examines how bonded persons experienced enslavement in Ottoman societies. He draws on court records and a variety of other unexamined primary sources…

The Cambridge World History of Slavery
Slavery and coerced labor have been among the most ubiquitous of human institutions both in time - from ancient times to the present - and in place, having existed in virtually all geographic areas and societies. This volume covers the period from the independence of Haiti to modern perceptions of slavery by assembling twenty-eight original essays, each written by scholars acknowledged as leaders in their respective fields. Issues discussed inclu…
Enslavement and Freedom in Transition
This article explores the transition from enslavement to post-emancipation realities in the Muslim-majority societies of the Middle East and North Africa during the last stage of empire and the first phase of nation-building. The main argument is that within enslavement, there were gradations of bondage and servitude, not merely a dichotomy between free and enslaved. The various social positions occupied by the enslaved are best understood as poi…
Matthew S. Hopper. Slaves of One Master
It is always a pleasure to welcome a new addition to the growing list of works on the history of enslavement in Muslim-majority societies; it is doubly so when the book is such an excellent work as the one authored by Matthew S. Hopper. The current cycle in enslavement studies has been characterized by a comparative approach that—over the past decade and a half—has opened up an expanding interest in non-Atlantic bondage to younger scholars, as we…
Political Initiatives
The book under review is a collection of papers presented at a symposium held in Rethymno in January 2009 (Halcyon Days in Crete VII). This beautifully produced volume, edited by Professor Anastasopoulos and published by Crete University Press three years later, contains nineteen articles in 468 pages. Some of the authors are leading Ottomanists whose work is well known in the field and outside, such as Suraiya Faroqhi, Leslie Peirce, and Nicolas…
Abolition and Anti-slavery in the Ottoman Empire
One of the main points of departure of the analysis offered in this chapter is that the suppression of the slave trade and the abolition of slavery were a type of social, economic, political, and even cultural reform. A necessary precondition for introducing a policy of reform is a broad-based recognition that something is either morally wrong or not working, and hence in need of being repaired. This is, however, not a sufficient condition; one n…
Slavery and Abolition in the Ottoman Middle East
In the Ottoman Empire, many members of the ruling elite were legally slaves of the sultan and therefore could, technically, be ordered to surrender their labor, their property, or their lives at any moment. Nevertheless, slavery provided a means of social mobility, conferring status and political power within the military, the bureaucracy, or the domestic household and formed an essential part of patronage networks. Ehud R. Toledano’s exploration…
Enslavement in the Ottoman Empire in the Early Modern Period
INTRODUCTION From the middle of the fifteenth century until its demise after World War I, the Ottoman Empire was arguably the most important Islamic power on the face of the earth. At the height of its expansion, it ruled a vast territory from the western Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf, from southern Poland to southern Sudan. Many of the sultan's subjects were not Muslim, did not speak Ottoman Turkish, and were illiterate, poor, and lived in v…

Social and economic change in the “long nineteenth century”
Unlike political events, social and economic processes are not amenable to periodization according to precise starting and ending-points. By their very nature, such processes do not begin at a certain moment in history, but rather mature over time; nor do they end abruptly, but rather tend to peter out gradually. Since the purpose of this chapter is to chart the main processes that took place in Egyptian society, we shall try to define a time fra…

The Imperial Eunuchs of Istanbul
Slavery in its various forms has long fascinated the minds of the moderns, both scholars and non-scholars. This fascination becomes even more intense when we cross the cultural lines of East and West: the many travel accounts of Europeans and Americans who visited the lands of Islam rarely failed to comment on the phenomenon of slavery, with special reference to haremslavery. In most of these accounts, the need of both writer and reader to satisf…
