Résumé
"The City and the Sultan: Political Governance in Islamic States" by Jeremy Riley delves into the complex and rich history of political governance in Islamic empires, focusing on the sultans' unique role as both political leaders and religious figures. The book explores the intertwined relationship between the rulers and their diverse, multi-ethnic subjects across vast territories, providing a deep analysis of how sultans balanced military power, religious authority, and bureaucratic structures to maintain stability in their realms.
Through the lens of iconic sultanates such as the Abbasid, Ottoman, and Seljuk empires, the book examines the evolution of Islamic governance from its early days after the death of the Prophet Muhammad to the decline of the Ottoman Empire in the 20th century. The work highlights how the sultans navigated the complexities of religious diversity, economic challenges, military affairs, and political succession, offering a detailed account of their governance strategies and the systems that enabled their longevity.
Riley provides a thorough exploration of the social contract between the sultans and their subjects, emphasizing the ways in which the sultanate system integrated Islamic law (sharia) with imperial administration. The book also delves into the sultans' legacy in the modern world, tracing how their governance models shaped contemporary political structures in the Muslim world. A blend of political history, religious analysis, and cultural insight, "The City and the Sultan" offers a comprehensive and compelling account of Islamic governance through the ages.
