Editor's Note:
Son dönemde Osmanlı devletini, Osmanlı toplum düzenini yüceltme adına Türk Devrimini ve Cumhuriyeti küçümseyen, hatta kötüleyen yayınlarda belirgin bir artış var. Osmanlı Devletinin çöküşünde büyük sorumluluğu olan II. Abdülhamit neredeyse Atatürk’e denk bir kahraman mertebesine çıkarılıyor, Osmanlı Devletinin aslında hiç gerilemediği, son haliyle bile bugün için örnek olabileceği iddia ediliyor, Osmanlı’nın çöküşünü hızlandıran Baltalimanı Ticaret Antlaşması, Tanzimat ve Islahat Fermanları çağdaşlaşma atılımları olarak övülüyor, Osmanlı Devletinin son döneminde hükümranlığını yitirmiş bir yarı-sömürgeye dönüştüğü gizlenerek “Osmanlı modelinden”, Osmanlı Devletini ayrılıkçı ayaklanmaların parçaladığı gözardı edilerek azınlıklara karşı “Osmanlı hoşgörüsünden” söz ediliyor. Bu görüşleri dile getiren kimi aşırı muhafazakâr ve İslamcı, kimi liberal yaftalı kişilerin aynı merkezlerde biraraya gelmeleri ve bu merkezlerin aynı zamanda ABD’nin Büyük Ortadoğu Projesinin sözcülüğünü yapması dikkat çekiyor.Selim Somçağ “Kanunî’den Vahdettin’e Osmanlı ve Batı”da Osmanlı Devletinin Batı karşısında üstünlükten Batı’nın yarı-sömürgesi haline gerileyişini ekonomik, toplumsal, siyasî ve askerî cepheleriyle, özgün bir sentez içinde ve analitik bir akışla ortaya koyarken, Türk tarihini çarpıtarak Türk Devrimini ve Cumhuriyeti karalamaya çalışan bu propagandayı da çökertiyor; “tarih bilgesi” kisvesiyle Büyük Ortadoğu Projesinin ve sömürgeci Batı’nın avukatlığını yapmaya soyunanlarla hesaplaşıyor.Kitapta cevaplanan ilginç sorulardan bazıları şunlar:Osmanlı toplumu neden kapitalizme geçemedi?Müslümanlık gerici, Hristiyanlık ilerici mi?Matbaamız olmadığı için mi geri kaldık?Lale Devri çağdaşlaşmanın başlangıcı mıydı, sefahatin zirvesi miydi?Fransız Devrimi Osmanlı’yı yıktı mı, kurtardı mı?Baltalimanı Ticaret Antlaşması 19. yüzyılın Gümrük Birliği miydi?Tanzimat çağdaşlaşma mıydı, yarı-sömürgeleşme miydi?İngiliz büyükelçisi Canning’e neden “İngiliz Sultan” denirdi?II. Abdülhamit vatansever miydi?Osmanlı Devletinin yıkılması Türkiye’yi küçülttü mü, kurtardı mı?Yeni Osmanlıcılık Türkiye’yi büyütür mü, parçalar mı?
