C 31: Societies at the Crossroads: Ottoman Empire, Russia, Japan and China
Issues that they share
• military weaknesses
• vulnerable to foreigners who could
often force their way in
• (SOME) propose reform modeled
on the West (education, responsive govt,
written constitutions, limit power
of rulers, guarantees of equality)
•Suffered from internal pressures
(population/ declining crop production/
Falling income/ failing economy) (unable
to address because of administrative issues)
Issues where they differ
• Ottoman Empire, Russia
China = elite rulers did
not embrace or support
reform
• Japan = Tokugawa
Shogunate fell, emperor was
restored, reform is thorough
and embraced industrialization

Proclamation for the Ottoman Empire (Young Turks 1908)
1. The basis for the Constitution will be respect for the predominance of the national
will. One of the consequences of this principle will be to require without delay the
responsibility of the minister before the Chamber, and, consequently, to consider
the minister as having resigned, when he does not have a majority of the
votes of the Chamber.
2. Provided that the number of senators does not exceed one-third the number of
deputies, the Senate will be named as follows: one-third by the Sultan and two-thirds
by the nation, and the term of senators will be of limited duration………
7. The Turkish tongue will remain the official state language. Official
correspondence and discussion will take place in Turkish………
9. Every citizen will enjoy complete liberty and equality, regardless of
nationality or religion, and be submitted to the same obligations. All
Ottomans, being equal before the law as regards rights and duties relative to the
State, are eligible for government posts, according to their individual capacity and
their education. Non-Muslims will be equally liable to the military law.

Industrialization with a fundamental agrarian
economy (motivation different than in WEST:

the serfs (mobile labor force/

Tsar Alexander II (1855-1881) abolished
serfdom (landowners compensated for their
loss BUT freed serfs not happy: WHY?)

Deshima, known as Dejima in Japanese, was a small artificial island in Nagasaki Bay
(approximately 150 feet by 500 feet) on the southwestern Japanese island of Kyushu.
From 1641 to 1845, Deshima served as the sole conduit of trade between Europe and Japan,
and during the period of self-imposed Japanese seclusion (approximately 1639-1854) was
Japan's only major link to the European world.

Problems observed
in student responses:
_______________________.
 the misuse of evidence by placing events in the wrong time period
 making reference to global processes happening over a vague period of
time without any anchoring dates
creating lists of information rather than well-structured arguments
More hints:
Remember the BIG PICTURE and Ripple Effects!
 Organize paragraphs by CHANGES and CONTINUITIES
 When speaking of Changes: be clear! (ie: change from what?)
 Make sure and include a discussion of GLOBAL CONTEXT
(ie:
comparisons to other regions, connections to global processes,
interactions among regions)
 ANALYZE the change and continuities: WHY? (must NOT be in thesis …)
 DO NOT discuss events that are not related to the questions
 DO NOT include long sections of material that are outside the timespan of the
question
