Abstract

Ovaj rad se bavi načinima tretiranja ratnih zarobljenika u kontekstu ranog novog vijeka i njihove razlike naspram robova. Autor istražuje ključne elemente koji ukazuju na razliku u tretmanu i sve većem angažmanu državne vlasti, da svoje podanike koji su pali u neprijateljsko zarobljeništvo nakon bitke ili pljačkaških pohoda na moru i kopnu, oslobodi i otkupi. U radu se obrazlažu sličnosti i razlike tretmana prema tim zarobljenicima, promjenu konfesije, mjestima i uvjetima u kojima su držani te... More mijenjanje njihova statusa kroz stoljeća. U radu se analiziraju temeljne razlike u gusarenju i piratstvu na području južnog Jadrana, njihova djelatnost u privređivanju i kako su ondašnje vlasti gledale na njih. Zatim, kršćanske i osmanske razbojničke grupe na graničnim područjima Bosne i Dalmacije, koji su maltretirali i odvodili civilno stanovništvo u ropstvo, međusobno zarobljavali jedni druge i tako razvili trgovinu ljudima na Jadranu. Analiziraju se svjedočanstva pojedinaca koji su pali u ropstvo i nekom srećom se izbavili te izrada komparativne analize odnosa Osmanlija i kršćana prema robovima i ratnim zarobljenicima. Autor nastoji prikazati opći stereotip prema Osmanskom Carstvu koji je uvriježen u zapadnoj historiografiji te znakovito prebacivanje krivnje za demografsko nazadovanje, dok su se podanici kršćanskih država istovremeno bavili istim djelatnostima.

Abstract (english)

This paper deals with the treatment of prisoners of war in the context of the early modern period and the differences in their treatment compared to slaves. The author explores key elements that point to the difference in treatment and the increasing involvement of state authorities in freeing and ransoming their subjects who had fallen into enemy captivity after battles or raids at sea and on land. The paper explains the similarities and differences in the treatment of these captives,... More changes in religious affiliation, the places and conditions in which they were held, and the evolution of their status over the centuries. It analyzes the fundamental differences between piracy and privateering in the southern Adriatic, their role in the economy, and how contemporary authorities viewed them. Furthermore, it addresses Christian and Ottoman bandit groups in the border areas of Bosnia and Dalmatia, who harassed and abducted the civilian population into slavery, captured each other, and thus developed a human trafficking trade in the Adriatic. Testimonies of individuals who fell into slavery and were, by some luck, freed are also examined, alongside a comparative analysis of the attitudes of the Ottomans and Christians towards slaves and prisoners of war. The author seeks to present the common stereotype of the Ottoman Empire prevalent in Western historiography and the notable shifting of blame for demographic decline, while the subjects of Christian states were simultaneously engaged in the same activities.
