A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The rights and privileges of foreigners in Turkeyare extensive and anomalous in character. Under the extraordinary regime of the Capitulations the Turks have retained but few of the rights of territorial sovereignty in respect to jurisdiction over resident foreigners. The result of this condition of affairs has been an attitude of irritating superiority on the part of the privileged foreigner; a corresponding resentful hostility on the part of the humiliated Turk; and incessant diplomatic controversies of a most trying nature. When an official in the American Embassy to Turkey the writer came to realize the general need of a clearer understanding in regard to the exact rights of foreigners as distinguished from their privileges and, in some instances, from their undue pretensions. This understanding seemed necessary quite as much for the purpose of doing justice to the sovereign rights of Turkey as for the purpose of protecting the just rights of foreigners. To discover the precise juridical bases of these rights was not an easy task because of the fact that the sources of information were scattered, incomplete, and required considerable comparative study.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
