Civilizations in Crisis: The Ottoman
Empire, the Islamic Heartlands, and
Qing China
Chapter 26
Study in contrasts
The Ottoman Empire
 The Ottoman Empire seemed about to collapse in the 18th
century from internal problems and a growing reliance on
European-made goods.
 By the 19th century, although much of the Ottoman Empire
had been lost, reformers had overthrown the ineffectual
sultanate and set up a new nation.
Study in contrasts
The Qing Dynasty
 On the other hand, the Qing dynasty believed it could isolate
foreigners in a few ports and maintain its own integrity.
 By the end of the 19th century, this had become impossible.
 European military force weakened the Qing and internal
problems toppled the dynasty, leaving no unifying force in its
place.
Compare the Islamic and Chinese
responses to the challenge of the
West and explain which society
was best able to retain aspects of
its traditional civilization.
Islamic and Chinese responses to the
challenge of the West
 Islam had been in conflict with the West since its first centuries.
 China’s conflicts were more recent.
 Muslims had incorporated more of Western technology than the
Chinese had.
 Muslims shared a Judeo-Christian background with the West, as
well as classical rationalism.
 Chinese culture was isolated from Western thought.
 Muslims were not united in one state, and thus had many separate
centers to defend.
 They were not as vulnerable to a single defeat as were the politically
unified Chinese.
Islamic and Chinese responses to the
challenge of the West
 When Chinese suffered defeats, they had to fall back on a
defense of the Qing dynasty as summation of their
civilization.
 The Muslims could fall back on the religious centrality of
Islamic civilization.
 The Western incursion into China was fatal to a traditional
civilization that depended on a centralized state run by an
imperial dynasty and a Confucian scholar-gentry bureaucracy.
 Islam, although not easily, was better able to retain traditional
Muslim culture while adapting to Western military
technological advances.
Compare the incursion of the
European nations into the Islamic
heartland and China with their
entry into Africa.
Compare the incursion of the European
nations into Islam and China w/ Africa.
 Western incursions into Africa and China were initially
similar:
 The Europeans operated from ports under indigenous control
for trade with the interior.
 Europeans traded socially “unacceptable” commodities with
both:
 slaves and opium.
 Later, more traditional products prevailed.
Compare the incursion of the European
nations into Islam and China w/ Africa.
 Africans lost territory to the Europeans during the 19th
century.
 The Chinese had European spheres of influence in their lands.
 The British intervention in Egypt was similar to
interventions elsewhere in Africa:
 indigenous officials were retained and Western reforms were
introduced.
 In both, Western-educated leaders led the path to
independence.
