| description | Statistical and econometric methods are increasingly used worldwide in the field of economic history. In this study, in accordance with this general trend, the financial (credit) and commercial transactions carried out in Istanbul in the 17th century are examined using social network analysis (SNA) within the framework of a belief-based classification. . Our research sought to determine who the key players were in the economic relations of the period. In this context, the kadi registers of Istanbul Central and Galata courts, which were located in the two busiest commercial districts of the Ottoman capital Istanbul between 1602-1697 were used. The Ottoman kadi registers were evaluated in terms of social and economic aspects and the dynamics of social relations were put forward. In addition, the SNA applications used in different studies in the field of Ottoman history and economics in the literature were given a new example in the context of Ottoman economic history. In this context, firstly, the transactions carried out in the context of financial and commercial relations in the Ottoman Empire in the 17th century were mentioned, then information was given about social network analysis, and, finally, the literature on its applications in various fields was mentioned. Then, the empirical part of the study was carried out to reveal the prominent names in terms of the intensity of economic relations and capital accumulation. According to the results obtained in the evaluation for the periods 1602-1619 and 1661- 1697, in the first period, while the weight of Muslim elements was seen in terms of persons, statesmen and foundations in financial relations, Christian elements came into prominence in commercial transactions. In the second period, Christians were more active in commercial and financial relations. |
