"In Ottoman Land Reform in the Province of Baghdad, Keiko Kiyotaki traces the Ottoman
reforms of tax farming and land tenure and establishes that their effects were the
key ingredients of agricultural progress. These modernizing reforms are shown to be
effective because they were compatible with local customs and tribal traditions, which
the Ottoman governors worked to preserve. Ottoman rule in Iraq has previously been
considered oppressive and blamed with failure to develop the country. Since the British
mandate government's land and tax policies were little examined, the Ottoman legacy
has been left unidentified. This book proves that Ottoman land reforms led to increases
in agricultural production and tax revenue, while the hasty reforms enacted by the
mandate government ignoring indigenous customs caused new agricultural and land problems"
