    An alternative approach to total economy of the late Ottoman Empire
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Simseker, Somer Alp; Sabanci, Zeynep
    The Ottoman Empire until the eve of the First World War gave the impression of an agrarian society with modest manufacturing activities, mainly based on craft-based production. A major difficulty was to supply food for the army for a long time in total war conditions. This was an important indicator for the new leaders of Ottoman bureaucracy to develop a nationalist economic view. With an intention to enhance further argument, this study implies that the Ottoman officials with their strong ties to Young Turk Movement would have pursued a nationalist economy regardless of the total war status. So, this study proposes that the war and rising nationalism were not the sole reasons for creating a national economy, but merely footsteps along the way.
