Abstract

The article takes issue with two hypotheses often claimed in the literature--that the Ottoman centuries extending from the sixteenth to the nineteenth evince a progressive development from a centralized to a quasi-feudal polity, and that during the course of the nineteenth century progress had been made toward a constitutional government. It is noted that throughout the period in question, in fact, two types of relationship existed between the center and the periphery: power politics and a degenerated form of patronclient relationship. The change that took place has been no more than a segregative change. Change in the periphery itself was not evolutionary, let alone revolutionary. At times it showed signs of involution; any weakening of the central control led to maximum legal irresponsibility. /// Cet article remet en question deux hypothèses souvent soutenues dans la littérature, à savoir que l'Empire ottoman, du seizième siècle au dix-neuvième siècle, évolue progressivement d'un système politique centralisé à une organisation quasi féodale et que, durant le dix-neuvième siècle, on assiste à des progrès en direction d'un régime constitutionnel. En fait, on constate que, tout au long de la période mentionnée, deux types de relation ont existé entre le centre et la périphérie: une politique de confrontation et une forme dégénérée de relation du genre client-patron. Les changements qui eurent lieu ne furent rien d'autre que des changements d'isolement. Les changements en périphérie ne furent pas évolutifs et certainement pas révolutionnaires. A certains moments des signes d'involution apparaissent même: tout affaiblissement du contrôle central entraîne une irresponsabilité légale accrue.
