Abstract

It is a state governed within the framework of Islamic law with its Ottoman institutions and functioning. Thought, policy and implementation processes were built in this direction. In research on Ottoman, Islamic law, period limitations and conditions must be considered. In this regard, this study aims to reveal how the reflection of economic thought in political economy is adopted in practice. Different policies and activities can be seen from its establishment until its destruction. It has been determined that economic policies that are very different from today's conditions are reflected in practice. Traditionalism, provisionism and fiscalism, which are the basic principles of economic thought, lead to a completely human-oriented construction of political economy. Among those who emphasize this best, the reaya-sipahi relationship and the foundation system have been particularly highlighted in the light of current research and comments.
