Resumen

El siglo XIX fue una época de agitación social y política para el Imperio Otomano. Para hacer frente a territorios perdidos, levantamientos, presiones y disturbios militares, políticos y económicos internacionales, tuvo que superar las deficiencias estructurales en las fuerzas armadas, la economía y la burocracia estatal que lo mantenían detrás de sus homólogos europeos. El impulso modernizador terminó tomando la forma de una profunda reforma legal e institucional a mediados de siglo, transformando, pero también perturbando, el estado y la sociedad otomanos. En este artículo, discutimos un componente crucial de estas reformas y relaciones internacionales en el Imperio Otomano del siglo XIX: el estatus legal de las minorías no musulmanas. Incluimos nuestro debate en el análisis de dos momentos: el reconocimiento oficial de la comunidad religiosa greco-católica (melkita) en 1848 y el conflicto civil sectario en Monte Líbano y Damasco en 1860. Discutiremos los vectores de intersección de intereses económicos, religiosos y políticos en su dimensión local, regional e internacional, mostrando un enfoque más matizado y multifacético y menos monolítico y estatocéntrico de las relaciones internacionales del Imperio Otomano tardío y el funcionamiento de sus instituciones.
