SHINY THINGS AND SOVEREIGN LEGALITIES: EXPROPRIATION OF DYNASTIC PROPERTY IN THE LATE OTTOMAN EMPIRE AND EARLY TURKISH REPUBLIC

Ceyda Karamursel · 2019

Catalogue summary

Parliamentary debates from the deposition of Abdülhamid II through the post-caliphate decade show how the late Ottoman and early Turkish Republic redefined dynastic property as public ownership. The legal history connects Yıldız Palace to later wartime and genocide-era appropriation.

Why this matters

The article provides a legal-history route into how sovereignty and property were recast, including consequences for Armenian property during and after the genocide.
