Özet

Ahmed Cemal Pasha was a notable figure of the Second Constitutional Era and of the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP), and his governorship of Baghdad Province was considerably important in terms of understanding the politics of that period. An example of CUP's centralist policies can be seen in the Arab provinces, particularly in Baghdad alongside Cemal Pasha as the CUP representative in the provinces. Prior to Cemal Pasha, the political balance in Baghdad had been anti-CUP, with the liberal wing together with the Liberal Union (aka, Freedom and Accord Party) having gained power in the province. Cemal Pasha tried to reduce the power of the notables who had become more firmly rooted in Baghdad in an attempt to change the local dynamics. This study examines Cemal Pasha's activities during his governorship in Baghdad between 1911-1912 and the disputes that occurred between the center and the local notables who opposed these activities.
