According to these principles and rules, among the needs of the state, military needs ranked first, and among them, the labour force requirement of the navy was at the top. Voluntary work was desired in the general labour policy in the Ottoman Empire. However, when labour force cannot be provided by volunteers due to insufficient supply of labour, as a necessity, prisoners were resorted to among alternative sources of labour. In parallel with the expansion of the lands and the growth of the navy in the Ottoman Empire, the labour deficit reached serious dimensions. For this reason, convicts were first employed as oarsmen in the navy from the 16th century onwards. Although there was a significant decrease in the need for oarsmen on ships because of the changes in naval technology, the employment of galley slaves was not abandoned. As a result of this, prisoners began to be employed in shipyards, though not on ships. On the other hand, upon seeing the expected benefit in convict labour, later, with the regulations made in the penal codes of the Tanzimat period, conviction of galley slave became permanent. In this research, the contribution of galley slaves to the labor market is tried to be analysed specifically for the Ottoman navy in the historical process starting from the Ottoman classical period and continuing until after the Tanzimat.","PeriodicalId":40948,"journal":{"name":"Tarih Incelemeleri Dergisi","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68183695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the paper, documents of the Ottoman Archives and the Archives of the Ministry of Interior will be taken as basis.Urfa was one of the three sancaks of Aleppo Province (Aleppo, Marash and Urfa) at the beginning of the twentieth century. In 1914, Urfa had become an autonomous sancak with five kazas under its administration, Urfa, Birecik, Rakka, Suruç, and Harran. Following the end of the National Struggle, all attached or independent sancaks were converted into vilayets. Thus, Urfa won the province status. These days, except for the central district, Birecik, Suruç and Harran districts were formed. The importance of governors is great in the first years of the National Struggle and the Republic. After the struggle with the invaders, they dealt with the difficulties faced by the new regime. Ismail Izzet Bey was in the governor of Urfa in 1923, when the Republic was proclaimed. After Ismail Izzet Bey's appointment on March 9, 1924, Ahmed Fuad Bey was appointed instead. In this mission, which started on March 30, 1924, it remained for about 4 years and 7 months until October 21, 1928. He previously served in various district governorships. After having been a property inspector for a while, he was appointed to the governor of Urfa. He then served in the governorships of Tekirdağ, Manisa, Kastamonu and Antalya.","PeriodicalId":40948,"journal":{"name":"Tarih Incelemeleri Dergisi","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49295936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this period, which is called the Neo-Assyrian period, Assyrian armies prevailed in a vast geographical region, extending from Egypt to Elam and reaching into even Babylonia and Anatolia. The most important region which Assyrians aimed to reign in the given period was Babylonia. They showed a great interest in the region due to its high economic potential. However, Elam, which was located in the eastern region of Sumerians, was also interested in the same region. Because they aimed to prevent a potential Assyrian hegemony over Babylonia, Neo-Elamites usually supported all anti-Assyrian rebellions. Another reason why Neo-Elamites adopted this policy lied in the fact that they saw it as necessary to prevent Assyrians from being a bordering state. On the other hand, Assyrians organized various military campaigns against both Babylon and Elam in order to control the region as well as conducting diplomatic relations. Therefore, the present study focuses on the struggle among these three states and their diplomatic relations by relying on Assyrian and Babylonian cuneiform texts and modern literature and refers to these cuneiform texts directly and indirectly in different parts of the study. In this way, the present study deals with conflict among Assyria, Elam and Babylon from a political, military and, to a certain extent, economic perspective and analyzes Neo-Elamite and Babylonian policies against hegemonic expansion of the Assyrian state in the first millennium BC and various measures taken by the Assyrian state against this alliance.","PeriodicalId":40948,"journal":{"name":"Tarih Incelemeleri Dergisi","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68183175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
