New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 150 p. Tobacco smuggling in the Black Sea region of the Ottoman Empire, 1883-1914. With the founding of the Régie in 1883, Ottoman tobacco producers were suddenly faced with a new company that took control over their mainstay crop. Tobacco producers and merchants who had problems with this new system came up with a variety of responses. One of these responses was the hiding and smuggling of the crop, and the number of tobacco smugglers rapidly increased. Many people from different sectors of the economy collaborated with the smugglers in order to make more money. The Ottoman government, worked to resolve the problems between the company and those working in the tobacco sector, but it failed to find a solution that would be satisfactory to all or that qualitatively would change the situation. It was the result of the different definition of ¿who is a smuggler' question by the government and the Régie. In the face of such vastly differing parameter, the Ottoman government could not reach a compromise with the Régie. Nor did the government create a new, alternative administration to the Régie because of the agreements between the Ottoman Public Debt Administration and the state. Within this context, this study examines the role of the ordinary people and the role of the organized movement against the monopolization of a crop. It is an attempt to show how the crowds in tobacco sector reacted to the changes in your daily lives.

New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (30 x 22 cm). Edition in English. 343 p., b/w and color ills. Two coasts one sea III: Sections from Turkish-Russian common history. Translated by Natalia Kizilkaya. Two geographies both on Asia and Europe on the coasts of the Black Sea basin, Turkey and Russia. These two countries that are among the most important and strongest figures of the world area have strengthened their relations with rooted cultural, economic and social sharing besides the same lands in the past centuries. They shared the same fate and history of nearly 500 years in Eurasia that has housed several civilizations. Starting from Kiev Russia and Seljuk era, the history of these two geographies have reflected each other on the journey of each turning into strong empires such as Moscow Russia and the Ottoman Beylik and state structures respectively. Russia and Turkey weaved their similar fate of their joint past sometimes with war and sometimes with peace, alliance, aid and friendship... They underwent 12 great wars in depth but showed extraordinary solidarity as if to inspire the proverb "a neighbor is in need of another"; just like the in the war of Independence. The book "Two coasts and One Sea" gives the opportunity to analyze developments in culture, literature, arts and economy in the wide spectrum of history besides acting a unique historian that brings a perspective to our lives shaped in the same geographies. In other words, it accompanies the journey of Turkish-Russian relations from the Ottoman era to the Republic. This is third and the last volume.
