The Zellich Print House: European Immigrants and Technology Transfer in the 19th-Century Ottoman Empire

Transfer of technology into the Ottoman state was one of the most important roles of European immigrants. Despite occasional state pressure during the Abdülhamid’s reign in particular, Zellich family was able to develop its business on account of mastering the art of lithography, one of new technologies imported from the West. However, after the circumstances that had attracted European immigrants changed in the 1920’s and 1930’s, the Zellich family, following the example of others, abandoned the business and eventually left the city and country in which it made its fame.
