Abstract

Our survey relates to the legal status of the Jews and to their socio-economic inte-
gration. It focuses on the realtively well-documented Jewish urban population
mainly in Anatolia and the Balkans in two main eras: the first stretches from
the late fifteenth century, when a large group of Iberian Jews settled in the rapidly
growing Ottoman territories, until the early nineteenth century.¹ The second peri-
od starts with the Ottoman reforms (Tanzimat, 1839 onward) and ends with the es-
tablishment of the Turkish Republic in 1923.
