  Ottoman Urban Studies Seminar (2009-2010)

  Post-Ottoman Cities

  What is the historical experience of cities in the former territories of the Ottoman Empire - in the Balkans, Anatolia, the Middle East, and North Africa - in dealing with the impact of global changes and the transformation from Empire to nation States? How did people of different cultural, social and religious backgrounds live together? How are such examples of conviviality, conflict, migration, and urban regimes of governance and stratification conceptualized? And how have urban traditions been reinterpreted, and what bearing does this have on modern conceptions of civil society, multicultural societies, migration, or cosmopolitanism. These and other questions will be addressed in this year’s Seminar in Ottoman Urban Studies. Séminaire organisé par Ulrike Freitag et Nora Lafi.

  Daily Life in Ottoman Towns

  What is the historical experience of cities in the former territories of the Ottoman Empire - in the Balkans, Anatolia, the Middle East, and North Africa - in dealing with the impact of global changes and the transformation from Empire to nation States? How did people of different cultural, social and religious backgrounds live together? How are such examples of conviviality, conflict, migration, and urban regimes of governance and stratification conceptualized? And how have urban traditions been reinterpreted, and what bearing does this have on modern conceptions of civil society, multicultural societies, migration, or cosmopolitanism. These and other questions will be addressed in this year’s Seminar in Ottoman Urban Studies, with a specific focus on daily life issues. This seminar is supported by the research program ‘Europe in the Middle East – The Middle East in Europe’ EUME with funds of the Fritz Thyssen Stiftung.

  Migration and Urban Institutions in the Late Ottoman Reform Period

  Les 10 et 11 mai 2007 se tiendra à Berlin, au Zentrum Moderner Orient (ZMO), une rencontre internationale organisée par Ulrike Freitag, Malte Fuhrman, Nora Lafi et Florian Riedler sur le thème "Migrations et Institutions urbaines dans l'Empire Ottoman durant la période des réformes". Cette rencontre, qui aura également une dimension comparatiste et méthodologique, entend rassembler des chercheurs d'horizons divers dans une réflexion sur l'impact des migrations dans les processus de gouvernance urbaine : insertion des migrants dans les structures du travail (corporations...), accès à la notabilité, stigmatisation éventuelle, ségrégation spatiale et sociale, question de la citadinité, question de la modernité administrative urbaine.
