| | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Alexandria, Virginia - History The City of Alexandria, first known as Belhaven, was named in honor of John Alexander, who in the last quarter of the 17th century had bought the land on which the city now stands from Robert Howison; the first settlement here was made in 1695. Alexandria was laid out in 1749 and was incorporated in 1779.
A portion of the City of Alexandria shares with all of today's Arlington County the distinction of having been originally in Virginia, ceded to the U.S. Government to form the District of Columbia, and later reattached to Virginia by the federal government in 1846, when the District was reduced in size to ...

| | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Tecumseh - Early years The exact year of Tecumseh's birth is unknown; 1768 is the generally accepted estimate. He was born in the Ohio Country, probably in one of the Shawnee towns along the Scioto River. Nineteenth century traditions (and current Ohio historical markers) placed his birthplace further west, along the Little Miami River, although the Shawnee towns there were not settled until after Tecumseh's birth. Tecumseh's name (which has been translated variously "I Cross the Way" or "A Panther Crouching for His Prey") was a reference to his family clan (or ph ...

| | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Social class - Marxian class Karl Marx defined class in terms of the extent to which an individual or social group has control over the means of production.
In Marxist terms a class is a group of people defined by their relationship to the means of production. Classes are seen to have their origin in the division of the social product into a necessary product and a surplus product. Marxists explain the history of civilized societies in terms of a war of classes between those who control production and those who actually produce the goods or services in society (a ...

There was no amount permanently fixed for it, though the payment usually depended on wealth: the Kitab al-Kharaj of Abu Yusuf sets the amounts at 48 dirhams for the richest (e.g. moneychangers), 24 for those of moderate wealth, and 12 for craftsmen and manual laborers.2 Females, children, the poor, and hermits were exempt from it.

| | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Social class - Non-economic conceptions of class In contrast to simple income--property hierarchies, and to structural class schemes like Weber's or Marx's, there are theories of class based on other distinctions, such as culture or educational attainment. At times, social class can be related to elitism, and those in the higher class are usually known as the "social elite".
For example, Bourdieu seems to have a notion of high and low classes comparable to that of Marxism, insofar as their conditions are defined by different habitus, which is in turn defined by different objectively ...

| | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Social class - Class in different parts of the world At various times the division of society into classes and estates has had various levels of support in law. At one extreme we find old Indian castes, which one could neither enter after birth, nor leave (though this applied only in relatively recent history). Feudal Europe had estates clearly separated by law and custom. On the other extreme there exist classes in modern Western societies which appear very fluid and have little support in law.
The extent to which classes are important differs also in western societies, though in most ...

| | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Dhimmi - Background The Arabic word "dhimmi" is an adjective derived from the noun "dhimma", which means "being in the care of" or . The term initially applied to "People of the Book" living in lands under Muslim rule, namely Jews and Christians. Over time Muslims extended this category to Zoroastrians, Mandeans, and Sikhs. Many, but not all, extend this to Hindus.
Traditional Arab historiography traces the origin of the dhimma to the Pact of Umar [1], allegedly drawn up by the second caliph, Umar ibn al-Khattab. Modern historian Hugh Goddard disputes th ...

| | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Dhimmi - Modern vs. customary practice The religious and legal views on the status of dhimmis have historically been a practical issue, but today have become a purely theoretical or theological issue for many Muslim societies. Few if any countries currently have a separate, legally-defined status for dhimmis. Certain Islamist organizations such as Al Qaeda, Taliban, Hamas, and Hizb ut-Tahrir seek to make Islamic law, including dhimma status, applicable in Muslim-majority states.
Some Muslim authors present the dhimmi as being equal to Muslims. For example:

| | | | | | Ottoman Millet system: Encyclopedia II - Jizya - Definitions Shakir and Khalifa's English translations of the Qur'an render jizya as "tax", while Pickthal translates it as "tribute". Yusuf Ali prefers to transliterate the term as jizyah.
Commentators disagree on the definition and derivation of the word jizya:
Yusuf Ali states "The derived meaning, which became the technical meaning, was a poll-tax levied from those who did not accept Islam, but were willing to live under the protection of Islam, and were thus tacitly willing to submit to its ideals being enfor ...
