History of the Turkish Economy

History of the Turkish Economy

History of the Turkish Economy, written by Prof. Dr. Ahmet Tabakoğlu, is one of the fundamental reference works examining the economic structure of Turkish society within a historical framework. The book analyzes in detail the development, transformation, and evolution of economic structures over a broad period extending from the Ottoman Empire to the Republic of Türkiye.

The work discusses the economic understanding of the classical Ottoman period, the timar and guild systems, the fiscal organization, the structure of industry and trade, the modernization process, the effects of the capitulations, and the economic difficulties experienced during the decline of the empire. It then comprehensively examines the economic congresses of the Republican era, industrialization policies, state-led economic practices, and efforts toward a free-market economy.

History of the Turkish Economy is not merely a study that presents economic data; it is also a work that evaluates economic structures in relation to social, political, and cultural developments. In this respect, it serves both as a fundamental source for academic research and as an indispensable guide for general readers seeking to understand Türkiye’s economic journey.
