Dividend Book of Karadere
Abstract
The Ottoman
State's tax collection methods and also rates changed with the change of
boundaries. Especially deteriorating central authority and received successive
defeats in the wars led to weakening of the public purse. The Ottoman State
which did not obtain the desired result of reform movements made some
arrangements in order to correct bad going over time. One of the most important
of these arrangements was the taxes to be taken from the people. The cash money
to be collected with taxes for treasure would give the opportunity to move in a
planned manner to the statesmen in the economic area.
During the
period from 1844 to 1845, a new registration work called " Dividend Book " was initiated in order to collect tax
more equitably by determining the existence of land, real estate, animals,
goods and goods possessed by the people in the geography where the state is
dominant. Dividend Books shed light especially on the history and other
disciplines in point of showing up the economic and social situation of that
period. In Dividend Books the income that dwellings had in a year and the
property that they had, were recorded then taxed in the name of the
householder. In this way, the profession of the people mentioned in the book,
the amount and kind of land they work, the amount of product obtained and the
number of animals were delivered to the center.
