| Research Abstract |
The aim of the present research is to describe the real situation of regional society which was undergoing change both politically under Tanzimat and economically in the midst of foreign trade expansion. The research describes in particular the circumstances of one particular ayan family of the Manisa region . the Karaosmano.lu family . through the prism of a document called the Temettuat Defters (‘Income Registers’) that was compiled on the basis of income surveys conducted by the central government in 1845 among the urban and rural residents as part of its reform programs. The region’s population, Muslim and non-Muslim alike, was becoming more and more sensitive to the rising foreign demand for its products. New social strata were being formed through the wealth provided by the expansion of trade, resulting in a neutralization, or relativization of the great influence that had been wielded by the Karaosmano.lu Family on the local level.
