In which ways was the ottoman and society tolerant and in What Ways Was it not?

History

It depends on what you understand from tolerance. It is true that the Ottoman administration usually did not care about ethno-religious groups’ internal affairs, and left them alone to a large extent. Nevertheless, non-Muslims were second-class citizens. Heterodox Muslims, such as the Alevis, the Druze and Alawites, were collectively considered to be heretics and they were not recognised as a group of people, and thus were deprived of any rights. Sometimes this utter intolerance toward ‘heretic’ Muslim groups extended to include many Sufi branches of Islam (especially during Kadizadeliler’s reign of terror) many of which would be considered mainstream by many Turks today,


Although the Millet system is celebrated for being tolerant, it caused these groups to have isolated modi vivendi. Armenians, Jews, Greeks and and Muslims had separate quarters, separate schools, separate legal systems and separate ethnarchs (like the Chief Rabbi or the Greek Orthodox Patriarch). This social and legal division prevented the Empire to assert a sense of “Ottoman Citizenship” in the late 19th century, and many millets wanted to have a separate country of their own. This resulted in many wars in the Balkans in late 19th and early 20th centuries, and of an Armenian sepaor the U.S.


ratist revolt supported by Russia in 1915 which the nationalist junta at the time (the C.U.P) used as a pretext for starting the Armenian genocide.


Today, Turkey is religiously very homogenous as non-Muslim minorities were driven out throughout the decades following the commencement of WWI.


So, “tolerance” was not always there (we’re talking about a 600 year-old empire, mind you) and it didn’t resemble modern open societies like Canada or the U.S.


i hope this helped bc it sure did take a while. lol

The house started with 65 members and eventually grew to _____ members by 1929, at which point the number was capped
tino4ka555 [31]
<span>435 This question isn't quite accurate. The size of the United States House of Representatives was capped to 435 by the Apportionment Act of 1911, which is otherwise known as "Public Law 62-5". Even with the 435 member cap, the size of the House of Representatives did climb temporarily past the cap when Arizona, New Mexico, Alaska, and Hawaii joined the United States and went back down to 435 after the next reapportionment was made in each case.</span>

Why is it relatively easy for firms to enter and leave a monopolistically competitive market?
VashaNatasha [74]

A monopolistically competitive market is, by definition, constituted by a large number of firms that compete producing diferenced versions of a product. Such companies are not price-takers and they hold certain degree of power market and of control over the pricing decisions.

However, in a market that comprises so many actors in its supply side, the market power is splitted in many small units and the amount exercised by each is not very strong. Firms operating in this market structure do not have enough power to affect their rivals through their internal decisions and also not enough power to affect potential competitors and to prevent their entrance. They cannot set entry barriers to prevent the entrance of new companies in the market.
