Özet
Where was the Ottoman Mediterranean? What was the legal status of Ottoman North African provinces? Were they autonomous dependent regions or independent sovereign entities? Just as many scholars engaged in these questions on the Mediterranean history, Joshua White’s new book titled Piracy and Law in the Ottoman Mediterranean is a remarkable contribution to the historiography. It basically explores the emergence of the Ottoman Mediterranean legal space and the role piracy played in shaping it.
