&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
Capitale de l&amp;rsquo;Empire ottoman, ville-port caract&amp;eacute;ris&amp;eacute;e par une grande diversit&amp;eacute; ethnique et confessionnelle, Istanbul est &amp;agrave; la fin du XIXe si&amp;egrave;cle une m&amp;eacute;tropole de pr&amp;egrave;s d&amp;rsquo;un million d&amp;rsquo;habitants, o&amp;ugrave; les enjeux li&amp;eacute;s &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;ordre public sont particuli&amp;egrave;rement sensibles. Avec les Tanzimat (r&amp;eacute;formes de l&amp;rsquo;&amp;Eacute;tat ottoman) et les changements &amp;eacute;conomiques et sociaux du long XIXe si&amp;egrave;cle, la d&amp;eacute;finition de l&amp;rsquo;ins&amp;eacute;curit&amp;eacute;, le dispositif de maintien de l&amp;rsquo;ordre et les formes de contestation de l&amp;rsquo;ordre &amp;eacute;tabli connaissent d&amp;rsquo;importantes transformations. C&amp;rsquo;est cette nouvelle configuration qui est ici &amp;eacute;tudi&amp;eacute;e, de la fin des ann&amp;eacute;es 1870 &amp;agrave; 1909, p&amp;eacute;riode marqu&amp;eacute;e par le r&amp;egrave;gne autoritaire d&amp;rsquo;Abd&amp;uuml;lhamid II et la r&amp;eacute;volution jeune-turque de 1908.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Confront&amp;eacute; aux d&amp;eacute;fis pos&amp;eacute;s par les migrations, les contestations politiques et les nouvelles formes de sociabilit&amp;eacute;, le pouvoir fait de la pr&amp;eacute;servation de l&amp;rsquo;ordre politique, social, moral et religieux une priorit&amp;eacute; absolue. L&amp;rsquo;institutionnalisation de la police et son d&amp;eacute;ploiement dans la capitale ont pour corollaire une red&amp;eacute;finition des priorit&amp;eacute;s de l&amp;rsquo;action des forces de l&amp;rsquo;ordre et de leurs modes d&amp;rsquo;int&amp;eacute;gration dans la ville, processus qui s&amp;rsquo;inscrit dans un mouvement europ&amp;eacute;en de r&amp;eacute;forme du maintien de l&amp;rsquo;ordre. L&amp;rsquo;ouvrage se concentre sur les nouvelles formes d&amp;rsquo;interactions, de coop&amp;eacute;rations ou de rivalit&amp;eacute;s entre les diff&amp;eacute;rents acteurs de l&amp;rsquo;espace urbain : l&amp;rsquo;institution polici&amp;egrave;re, principale responsable du maintien de l&amp;rsquo;ordre dans la capitale, les &amp;quot;agents interm&amp;eacute;diaires&amp;quot; tels les bek&amp;ccedil;i (veilleurs de nuit) ou les kabaday&amp;#305; (sortes de ca&amp;iuml;ds), et la population locale.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Des d&amp;eacute;viances quotidiennes &amp;agrave; la stigmatisation des classes populaires arm&amp;eacute;niennes, des rondes polici&amp;egrave;res &amp;agrave; la pression sociale dans les quartiers, cet ouvrage offre un &amp;eacute;clairage nouveau sur les multiples facettes des relations entre l&amp;rsquo;&amp;Eacute;tat et la soci&amp;eacute;t&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; la fin de l&amp;rsquo;Empire ottoman. Il apporte aussi une contribution originale &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;historiographie de l&amp;rsquo;ordre public et du maintien de l&amp;rsquo;ordre en Europe.&lt;br /&gt;

                <text>&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;Abstract from the publisher:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; Between 1840 and 1880, the Eastern Mediterranean port of Izmir (Smyrna) underwent unprecedented change. A modern harbor that welcomed international steamships and new railway lines that transported a cornucopia of products transformed the physical city. Migrants, seasonal workers, and transient sailors thronged into an already diverse metropolis, helping to double the population to 200,000. Simultaneously, Ottoman officials and enterprising citizens vied to control and reform the city&amp;rsquo;s administrative and legal institutions.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Ottoman Izmir examines how urban space, institutional structures, and everyday practices shaped one another in the thriving seaport of Izmir during a volatile period of growth. Sibel Zandi-Sayek investigates a variety of urban actors&amp;mdash;Muslims and non-Muslims, Ottomans and Europeans, newcomers and native residents, merchants, investors, civil servants, and press reporters&amp;mdash;who were actively engaged in restructuring the city. Concentrating on the workings of urban committees and on laws and policies that were written, rewritten, but never fully implemented, Zandi-Sayek exposes how modern interventions sought to impose clear-cut concepts of public and private, safety and danger, and hygiene on a city that previously had a wide range of customary regulations.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Ottoman Izmir shows how Izmir&amp;rsquo;s various stakeholders contested its built environment. In so doing, it offers a new view of the dynamics of urban modernization.&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;b&gt;Sibel Zandi-Sayek&lt;/b&gt; is associate professor in the Department of Art and Art History at the College of William and Mary.&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; </text>

&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
1453 : Constantinople, moribonde, s'effondre sous les coups du sultan Mehemmed le Conqu&amp;eacute;rant.&lt;br /&gt;
L'ancienne cit&amp;eacute; des empereurs de Byzance s'efface pour devenir Istanbul, la capitale de l'empire ottoman, le symbole de sa civilisation, le signe de sa splendeur. Pour ces nouveaux ma&amp;icirc;tres, dont l'esprit avait puis&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; l'islam comme &amp;agrave; la chr&amp;eacute;tient&amp;eacute;, pouvait-on r&amp;ecirc;ver rien de plus embl&amp;eacute;matique que cette ville construite sur le Bosphore au passage des deux mondes, l'occidental et l'oriental, le grec et l'asiatique ? Dessinant son apog&amp;eacute;e &amp;agrave; l'&amp;eacute;poque de S&amp;uuml;leyman le Magnifique, ils en firent pour plusieurs si&amp;egrave;cles la ville phare, dont po&amp;egrave;tes, peintres et voyageurs ne se lass&amp;egrave;rent pas de raconter les merveilles.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tout &amp;eacute;tonnait &amp;agrave; Istanbul : l'architecture, le syst&amp;egrave;me de gouvernement, la beaut&amp;eacute; des palais, l'organisation artisanale, la vitalit&amp;eacute; commerciale. Caravans&amp;eacute;rails et bazars accueillaient les caravanes venues des confins d'Asie, les marchands des mers d'Europe, dans un extraordinaire brassage de langues, de religions et de coutumes t&amp;eacute;moignant de l'&amp;eacute;tonnante richesse de la ville. C'est toute son originalit&amp;eacute; et sa magnificence que Bernard Lewis nous restitue aujourd'hui en se servant abondamment des t&amp;eacute;moins de l'&amp;eacute;poque. Ils disent ce que fut la vie &amp;agrave; Istanbul et de quelle civilisation elle &amp;eacute;tait le reflet.&lt;/div&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Bernard Lewis&lt;/b&gt; est un historien consid&amp;eacute;r&amp;eacute; comme l'un des meilleurs sp&amp;eacute;cialistes du Moyen-Orient et de l'Islam. Il est professeur &amp;eacute;m&amp;eacute;rite des &amp;eacute;tudes sur le Moyen-Orient &amp;agrave; l'Universit&amp;eacute; de Princeton.&lt;/div&gt;

                <text>&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;Abstract from the publisher:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; The history of Jerusalem as traditionally depicted is the quintessential history of conflict and strife, of ethnic tension, and of incompatible national narratives and visions. It is also a history of dramatic changes and moments, one of the most radical ones being the replacement of the Ottoman regime with British rule in December 1917. From Empire to Empire challenges these two major dichotomies, ethnic and temporal, which shaped the history of Jerusalem and its inhabitants. It links the experiences of two ethnic communities living in Palestine, Jews and Arabs, as well as bridging two historical periods, the Ottoman and British administrations.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Drawing upon a variety of sources, Jacobson demonstrates how political and social alliances are dynamic, context-dependent, and purpose-driven. She also highlights the critical role of foreign intervention, governmental and nongovernmental, in forming local political alliances and in shaping the political reality of Palestine during the crisis of World War I and the transition between regimes.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; From Empire to Empire offers a vital new perspective on the way World War I has been traditionally studied in the Palestinian context. It also examines the effects of war on the socioeconomic sphere of a mixed city in crisis and looks into the ways the war, as well as Ottoman policies and administrators, affected the ways people perceived the Ottoman Empire and their location within it. From Empire to Empire illuminates the complex and delicate relations between ethnic and national groups and offers a different lens through which the history of Jerusalem can be seen: it proposes not only a story of conflict but also of intercommunal contacts and cooperation.&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;b&gt;Abigail Jacobson &lt;/b&gt;teaches at the Interdisciplinary Centre in Herzlia, Israel.&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; </text>

                <text>&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;Abstract from the publisher : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; The nexus of urban governance and human migration was a crucial feature in the modernisation of cities in the Ottoman Empire of the nineteenth century. This book connects these two concepts to examine the Ottoman city as a destination of human migration, throwing new light on the question of conviviality and cosmopolitanism from the perspective of the legal, administrative and political frameworks within which these occur.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Focusing on groups of migrants with various ethnic, regional and professional backgrounds, the book juxtaposes the trajectories of these people with attempts by local administrations and the government to control their movements and settlements. By combining a perspective from below with one that focuses on government action, the authors offer broad insights into the phenomenon of migration and city life as a whole. Chapters explore how increased migration driven by new means of transport, military expulsion and economic factors were countered by the state&amp;rsquo;s attempts to control population movements, as well as the strong internal reforms in the Ottoman world.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Providing a rare comparative perspective on an area often fragmented by area studies boundaries, this book will be of great interest to students of History, Middle Eastern Studies, Balkan Studies, Urban Studies and Migration Studies.&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;b&gt;Contents : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; 1.

                <text>From the preface by Hazel Shepard (September 1885) : &amp;nbsp; There is a saying, as old as it is true, that he who would be a writer must first of all have something to write something new to tell, or some new or better way of putting forth what is already known. This volume has not been called into existence as something new, but because there was not, so far as could be found, any work devoted entirely to a description of the outward appearance and real position of the GREAT CITIES OF THE MODERN WORLD.  A metropolis represents a focus of power; the chief forces of a country's civilization are centered in its great towns; and it has been believed that in giving a description of the large cities of the chief countries of the world, and bringing them together in a classified volume, there will be presented in a condensed form the leading features, not only of the great cities of the world, as a whole, but also of the civic national life of all the important countries of the globe.  The endeavor has been to prepare a book instructive and interesting to readers of all ages, but especially to place before young people a clear and, in a measure, complete idea of the greatest cities of our time, rated according to size, importance in intellectual, commercial, and manufacturing power, and descriptive of population and architectural appearance.   In all cases the aim has been to make the leading features either of a single city or a national group stand out prominently and leave the strongest impression. To combine all these characteristics into a single volume upon so broad a subject it has been necessary to consult a multitude of authorities; and, although these are far too many for the briefest enumeration, it is but just to acknowledge that valuable aid has been received from the standard encyclopaedias and from nearly all the leading works of reference of both special and general character whose scope comes in any way within that of the Great Cities of the Modern World. &amp;nbsp; NB : This work is available from the Internet Archive in multiple  formats : online, PDF, EPUB, Kindle, Daisy, Full Text, and DjVu. We  recommend the PDF format (68 MB), both for ease of reading and because  it has been scanned using OCR, allowing searches of the full text. &amp;nbsp; </text>
