Hans Georg Majer – författare

The Ottomans were newcomers to Southeast Europe when they first set foot on the Balkan Peninsula at the end of the 14th century, but they proceeded to dominate the region for almost 500 years. This work examines the history of political culture and migration during the Ottoman period. The contributions contained in this volume make clear that the Ottomans in no way imposed a reign of terror, but inaugurated their rule with tolerance toward their non-Moslem subjects.
