Türkiyede Gayrimüslimlerin Yönetimi

The Ottoman Empire used sharia and customary law systems together in its domestic and foreign policies, and considered both legal systems as a set of rules that complement each other. Especially in the classical period, the main reference in the administration of non-Muslims was Islamic Law. The state, which determined the administration of non-Muslims within the framework of Islamic Law, tried to systematize this administration with its own unique organizations. With some changes, this administrative method continued until the 19th century, and after the Reform Edict of 1856, a very different administrative system was adopted for the non-Muslim subjects of the Ottoman Empire from the previous periods. In this study, the administrative system that changed with the Reform Edict and the nation regulations that came into force after the edict are examined in detail, and the benefits of the Westernization process to the non-Muslim citizens of the Ottoman Empire and the changes in their administration are discussed. In this context, answers to questions such as to what extent the administrative understanding of the Ottoman Empire, which started to change in the 19th century, affected the minority system - together with its practices - determined by the Treaty of Lausanne during the transition to the Republic of Turkey, and how this process affected the attitude of the Republic of Turkey towards minorities are sought. .
