Answer:

It resisted new ideas from Europe.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Ottoman government deliberately pursued a development policy based on shopping centers where artisans were indispensable in the wealth of metropolises. The government had no interest in implementing industrialization processes in its trade. This lack of interest was the result of resistance to the new ideas of Europe.
