France and "Indochina"

At the intersection of literary, cultural, and postcolonial studies, this volume looks at French perceptions of "Indochina" as they are conveyed through a variety of media including cinema, literature, art, and historical or anthropological writings. The volume is long awaited, as France's memory of "Indochina" is understudied compared to its relationship with its former colonies in West and North Africa. The book has contemporary urgency as the makeup of France's immigrant population changes and grows to include Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Laotioan populations.

Milli Mücadele'de Mustafa Kemal Paşa'nın Yabancılarla Temas ve Görüşmeleri Asker, Siyasi Temsilci ve Gazeteciler

Milli Mücadele'deki başarıların temelinde, askeri zaferlerin yanı sıra, takip edilen dış politika ve bununla paralel olark gelişen Mustafa Kemal Paşa'nın yabancılarla yaptığı temas ve görüşmeleri yatmaktadır. Bunun bütünüyle incelenmesi; onun sergilediği tavrın, temel bir prensip çerçevesinde odaklandığını göstermektedir. Bu da, Erzurum ve Sivas kongreleri kararlarıyla tespit edilip Misak-ı Milli'de ifadesini bulan ve her zaman temel hareket noktasını oluşturan tam bağımsızlıktır. Nitekim bu amaçtan hareketle bütün bu temas ve görüşmeleri barışa giden yolda birer basamak olmuştur.
