Now, Kent F. Schull argues that these prisons were actually a site of immense reform and contestation during the 19th century. It was within these prisons' walls that many of the pressing questions of Ottoman modernity were worked out; questions of administrative centralisation, Islamic criminal law and punishment, gender and childhood, prisoner rehabilitation, bureaucracy, identity and social engineering. By juxtaposing them with the reality of prison life, Schull investigates how state-mandated reforms affected the lives of local prison officials and inmates. He shows how these individuals actively conformed to, contested and manipulated new penal policies and practices for their own benefit. 606 $aPrisons$zTurkey$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPrisons$zTurkey$xHistory$y19th century 610 $aHistory 610 $acivilisation 610 $apenal reform 610 $aOttoman Empire 610 $aOttoman prisons 610 $aTurkish prisons 610 $aMiddle East history 610 $adefensive modernisation 610 $aIstanbul 610 $aSharia 615 0$aPrisons$xHistory 615 0$aPrisons$xHistory 676 $a365.956109041 700 $aSchull$b Kent F.$0921489 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255446603321 996 $aPrisons in the late Ottoman Empire$92066977 997 $aUNINA
