The Ottoman Empire and The Bosnian Uprising : Janissaries, Modernisation and Rebellion in the Nineteenth Century Conclusion

Abstract

This study analyses the reasons why the people of Bosnia rebelled against the centralization and reform policies of the Ottoman Empire during the period between 1826 and 1836, the ways in which the rebels legitimized their action and struggled to gain acceptance for their demands, and how those reactions were interpreted by the Ottoman statesmen.
