İmparatorluktan Ulus Devlete Göçler

Öz

The first reason why this study is valuable for researchers and readers is that the author addresses the issue by using a wide range of the Ottoman archive documents and the work may enable us to see the attitude of the Ottoman state towards emigration and the policies it implemented. Secondly, the book extensively focuses on emigrations after the Crimean War and War of 1877-8 because emigrations took a massive character during those wars and their aftermath. Moreover, it should be noted that the author has mentioned some important points such as the reasons of the emigrations (the policy of Christianisation, taxation and forced labour, exile and massacres, emigration routes and temporary settlement places and settlement activities, reliefs supplied for the immigrants such as the food and accommodation relief, the land allocation, the exemption granted for the immigrants, and so on).
