5. Civilizations in Crisis: The Ottoman Empire, the Islamic Heartlands, and Qing China
Chapter 26

6. 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.

7. 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.

8. 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.

9. 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.

10. 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.

11. Compare the incursion of the European nations into the Islamic heartland and China with their entry into Africa.

12. 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.

13. 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.
