@article{2017,title={AN INHERITED QUESTION FROM OTTOMAN TO THE REPUBLIC: LIQUIDATION OF SALARIES OF YURTLUK-OCAKLIK AND SUBJUGATED PROPERTIES},abstractNode={In the Classical Sanjak, the Hukumet Sanjak and Yurtluk and Ocaklik Sanjaks the differences in the appointment of the administrative class in the Ottoman State were the backbone of the provincial organization of the empire. Forming the basis of this study, Yurtluk and Ocaklik Sanjaks which is known to have been existed since the early period of Ottoman administrative system maintained their places until the Tanzimat reforms. The right to govern in Yurtluk and Ocaklik Sanjaks was held by the governors to whom they gain this right hereditarily. This ruling group was the families that had important services at the conquest of the region, or the dynasties committed to protecting those regions, which are generally on the border. In these places, censuses (tahrirs) were performed, the timar system could be applied. The land of Sanjak and the rights and authorities on the land were substantially in the hands of the administrator. An administrative mechanism established in this way for nearly three centuries had its own share from the change and transformation of the Tanzimat era in which contemporary reforms were implemented; as a consequent, yurtluk-ocaklik sanjak and lands will be captured by the state. In the new order, these sanjaks, which will be governed by the administrators appointed by headquarter, will have a more modern administrative structure within the scope of the reforms that its era requires. Declared in 1839, Tanzimat Firman was put into practice since 1845 in the region that covers East and Southeast Anatolia and in this context, this region in which yurtluk and ocaklik sanjaks situated went through a drastic transformation process. In Hukumet Sanjaks, there will be various dynasties that do not accept this order immediately, but salaries will be paid to the old administrators of the provinces and any probable uprising will be suppressed. The basis of this salary system, the process of its operation, the experienced troubles and the ways of solution will be evaluated in the light of Ottoman archive documents. For the process of liquidation of the yurtluk-ocaklik salaries that were continued to be paid in the Republican period, legal proceedings of the applications are going to be done through the documents of Republic and TBMM (Turkish Grand National Assembly) archives.},author={Yakup KARATAŞ-- Demet Dural KARASU},year={2017},journal={The Journal of Academic Social Science Studies}}
