Abstract
Legal protection of religious and linguistic identity
of non-Muslim population in the Millet System in
the Ottoman empire provided the non-Muslim elites
of this system the opportunity to gradually embrace
Western ideas of the nation and articulate political
aspirations of their ethnic or linguistig groups in
line with these ideas. Therefore in the age of dissolution of the Ottoman Turkish empire and the age of „Moderna“ in Slavic/Balkan states there were
created preconditions and circumstances for the
establishment and revival of ethnic and cultural
identities in former Ottoman Turkish Slavic and
other state-colonies.
