dc.description.abstractThis study examines and evaluates the processes of communication technology transfer and adoption during the last century of the Ottoman Empire, 1823-1923. To this end, the adoption processes of four technologies, the postal system, telegraph, telephone, and the printing press, are examined in detail. The objective is to explain the underlying reasons for technology adoption by the government by using a historical perspective. In general, the study's primary purpose is to examine the effect of technology on administrative processes historically. The findings of the study show that these communication technologies were instrumental. First, they connected the Ottoman countryside to the Imperial Capital (Istanbul) for administrative and military purposes, making it easier for the central Ottoman Administration to control the Empire. Second, they were instrumental in integrating the Empire's economy into the global capitalist economy, and along the way, transforming the Ottomans into a de-facto semi-colony. The impact created by these technologies, which were used for administrative centralization provides important lessons for current technological transformation processes.
