Public Sphere in the Eastern Mediterranean
In the eastern Mediterranean as elsewhere in the world, the history of the public sphere was inextricably connected to the greater levels of social mobility, urbanization, and modernization that marked the history of cities between the seventeenth and twentieth centuries. This chapter focuses on the two most recurring motifs of contemporary accounts of public spaces, sociability and dissent. It then dwells on the significance of public spaces, specifically, as an indispensable institution of modernity after the 1840s. By the second half of the nineteenth century, the association between public space and popular dissent acquired a new significance, which can only be read in the context of the social and political exigencies of modern life. Several new public squares and gardens and cultural institutions emerged out of the Ottoman state's ambitious project of modernity that followed the proclamation of the westernstyle Tanzimat modernization reforms in the 1840s.
