Abstract
AbstractThis chapter analyzes Ottoman slavery as an institution in order to provide readers with insights into how Ottoman society both benefited from slavery and became largely defined by it. The topic will be examined by illuminating the aspects of entry into slavery, extraction of slave labor, and exits from slavery, arguing that these three phases were cyclical rather than gradually evolutionist.
