During the nineteenth century, the Ottoman Empire attempted to create a unified imperial identity whereby all individuals in the empire would be awarded equal political status. At the same' time, Ottoman subjects began to be transformed into Ottoman citizens, benefiting from concepts like `popular opinion,' `government accountability,' and `equality before the law,' at least in terms of those who were propertied and male. The process became known as the Tanzimat, or Ottoman reform movement.

520 $a During the nineteenth century, the Ottoman Empire attempted to create a unified imperial identity whereby all individuals in the empire would be awarded equal political status. At the same' time, Ottoman subjects began to be transformed into Ottoman citizens, benefiting from concepts like `popular opinion,' `government accountability,' and `equality before the law,' at least in terms of those who were propertied and male. The process became known as the Tanzimat, or Ottoman reform movement.
520 $a The specific focus of this dissertation is on the ideological battle and the impact of ideas embedded in the reform movement. Constitutional Ottomanism was many things, I argue, but as a rhetorical project, the arguments that officials gave in favor of it were as important as what it actually accomplished.
520 $a By speaking the language of liberalism, Ottoman officials hoped to chart an independent course while at the same time not antagonizing allies like Britain on whom they depended. In the end, however, the Ottoman constitution, the very project of Ottomanism and the progressive spirit of the reform process, failed. Using the language of Pierre Bourdieu's field theory, I chart the trajectory of Ottoman assertiveness beginning with the promulgation of the edict of Gulhane in 1839, culminating in the Ottoman constitution of 1876, and falling precipitously after the British invasion in 1882, events which mark the framework of the Ottoman attempt to reform their own affairs for themselves. Ottoman representatives tried to adapt what were seen as traditional practices to suit contemporary realities: they proposed Constitutionalist Ottomanism, a doctrine positing the citizenship of all those inhabitants of the Empire who were male and propertied without regard to ethnicity, who would be represented in a parliament and governed by a written charter, or constitution.
520 $a The empirical chapters "The Hard Sell," "Derailing Ottoman Sovereignty," "Ottomanism Doesn't Pay," and "The British Invasion," therefore, reconstruct how officials at the time thought, not what they did. This analytical strategy rests on detailed reconstruction of historical events and consideration of the differential pressures actors experienced based upon their location in one or many social structures. I am especially attentive to how government bureaucrats tailored their messaging as a result of the perceived positioning of their audience. A determined supporter would be addressed differently than a skeptic, who in turn would receive a different treatment than an avowed opponent.
520 $a Using archival materials from the Basbakanlik Osmanli Arsivi in Istanbul as well as the work of Turkish historians never before translated into English, I show that the leaders of the Ottoman Empire attempted to sell this new program of reform to European statesmen by means of a publicity campaign. Ottoman statesmen attempted to prove to those Europeans who had advocated separate administration for Ottoman Christians that these measures were unnecessary, and the Porte possessed the requisite level of `civilization' to reform itself by adopting a constitution and parliament. Although the Ottoman project for Imperial Citizenship failed, this should not detract from the ability of others to study and learn from this attempt.
