Özet:

Thro the historical process, people have used many methods to help those in need. The most well-known of these methods was to bring together with other people and create aid communities for different sections of society. The foundation of these formations is mainly based on religious sensitivities and concerns about the disruption of social balance. Historical data show that the foundation, church and trade locations are in the forefront in social aid. The needs of the poor in the Ottoman state have long been satisfied through these institutions. From the nineteenth century, assistance communities, organized as civil society organizations alongside churches and trade locations, began to carry out various activities to help the poor. Some of these communities were international missionary organizations organized in many parts of the world. Other aid organizations were managed by non-Muslim communities or craftsmen. The current information shows that in the nineteenth century, especially immediately after the proclamation of the Second Legitimate, the number of aid communities founded mainly by non-Muslims increased. The Turks also began to establish good communities for the poor and those in need of assistance over time, so they played an important role in increasing the number of such aid organizations. The great social, political and economic problems the Ottoman State has experienced in the last period have also influenced the course of the relationship of society with the poor section. The relationship between the state and society has changed rapidly with the new process and has formed a new form. The main purpose of this study is to address the historical process of fukaraperver communities by moving from the documents found in the Ottoman State Archives.
