Avi Rubin's Ottoman Rule of Law and the Modern Political Trial

In this seminar we will be discussing Avi Rubin's book on an alleged murder case of a former Ottoman Sultan and its trial in the 19th Century Ottoman Empire. His precious contribution to socio-legal history opens ways for discussing topics such as legal cultures, archival material, legal reform, political trials, and political history. 

In the seminar we are looking forward for discussing variety of subjects, not only limited to Ottoman context and we will also consider what we can distill from Rubin's work for various research areas of legal history.

The seminar takes place online on the following date: 31st of January between 11:00-12:30.
