State in Science -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Bibliography -- IndexScholars have long thought that, following the Muslim Golden Age of the medieval era, the Ottoman Empire grew culturally and technologically isolated, losing interest in innovation and placing the empire on a path toward stagnation and decline. Science among the Ottomans challenges this widely accepted Western image of the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Ottomans as backward and impoverished. In the first book on this topic in English in over sixty years, Miri Shefer-Mossensohn contends that Ottoman society and culture created a fertile environment that fostered diverse scientific activity. She demonstrates that the Ottomans excelled in adapting the inventions of others to their own needs and improving them. For example, in 1877, the Ottoman Empire boasted the seventh-longest electric telegraph system in the world; indeed, the Ottomans were among the era’s most advanced nations with regard to modern communication infrastructure. To substantiate her claims about science in the empire, Shefer-Mossensohn studies patterns of learning; state involvement in technological activities; and Turkish- and Arabic-speaking Ottomans who produced, consumed, and altered scientific practices. The results reveal Ottoman participation in science to have been a dynamic force that helped sustain the six-hundred-year empire.ScienceTurkeyHistoryTechnologyTurkeyHistoryScienceSocial aspectsTurkeyHistoryIslam and scienceTurkeyHistoryScience and stateTurkeyHistoryTurkeyHistoryOttoman Empire, 1288-1918ScienceHistory.TechnologyHistory.ScienceSocial aspectsHistory.Islam and scienceHistory.Science and stateHistory.509.56/0903Shefer-Mossensohn Miri1971-1648429MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812990003321Science among the Ottomans4115901UNINA01545nam 22004213 450 991102246550332120251012090350.03-031-87393-9(CKB)40896524500041(MiAaPQ)EBC32323579(Au-PeEL)EBL32323579(OCoLC)1545644758(EXLCZ)994089652450004120251012d2025 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMichel Foucault, the State and the Social Sciences1st ed.Cham :Palgrave Macmillan,2025.©2025.1 online resource (255 pages)Political Philosophy and Public Purpose Series3-031-87392-0 This book proposes an original reading of Foucault's theory of the state in relation to the social sciences.In this text, Skornicki deconstructs the pseudo-obviousness in Foucauldian thought, namely that Michel Foucault's new approach in political philosophy rejects the importance of the State institution for an analysis of power relations to.Political Philosophy and Public Purpose Series320.101Skornicki Arnault1285811Brown Andrew13647MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911022465503321Michel Foucault, the State and the Social Sciences4445326UNINA
