The volume makes a contribution to the ongoing reassessment to the era, which presents late Ottoman history from an approach of continuum between traditional and modern aspects, instead of a dichotomist understanding. The new emphasis is on the inner processes of change undertaken by a complex society instead of an exaggerated influence of Western actors. I see this substantial shift as a consequence of our zeitgeist, which has taught many historians not to see the world from within the cages of actual political settings, like that of the Cold War.
