Patrik Meletios Metaksakis ve İstanbul Rum / Ortodoks Patrikhanesi (1921 - 1923)

İstanbul Rum Ortodoks Patrikhanesi, İstanbul’un 1453’te fethiyle beraber Osmanlı’nın idarî sistemine dahil edildi ve Patrikhane’nin Osmanlı bünyesine girişi problemsiz şekilde gerçekleşti. Nitekim Katoliklerden yardım istenmesini teklif edenlere o devrin bir din adamının “Bizans’ta Katolik külahı görmektense, Osmanlı sarığı görmeyi tercih ederim” şeklindeki o meşhur tarihî cevabı bu bakımdan mühimdir. Yani Osmanlı İmparatorluğu hakimiyetine girmekten pek de rahatsız olmamışlardı. Osmanlı padişahı ve İstanbul fatihi Sultan Mehmet de onları, dinlerinde serbest bırakarak ve cemaatlerinin idaresini de kiliselere vererek rahatlatmıştı. Bu,...

İngiliz Ermeni İttifakı

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nun çöküşü İngiliz Ermeni İttifakı ile başladı. Peki İngilizler ve Ermeniler nasıl ittifak etti. 1688'de İngiliz ve İran-Hindistan Ermenileri arasında imzalanan ve asırlarca sadık kalınarak koruna bu antlaşma nasıl gerçekleşti. Üzerinde güneş batmayan İngiliz İmparatorluğu'nun kuruluşunda Ermeniler ne gibi bir role sahiplerdi? İngiliz istihbarat ağının şekillenmesinde 19. yüzyılda İngilizler Ermenileri nasıl kullandı? İngilizler, kendi imparatorluk çıkarları için Ermeniler ve Türkleri nasıl birbirine düşman etti? 1915 olaylarının perde arkasında neler var? Peki İngilizler neden Ermenileri yüz üstü bıraktılar? Daha bunun gibi onlarca günümüze kadar cevaplanmamış sorular bu çalışmada cevap buluyor. Halil Ersin Avcı'nın 7 yıllık Türkiye, İngiltere, Fransa, ABD ve Almanya'daki araştırmalarının neticesinde ortaya çıkan bu çalışma kapsamı itibariyle de bir ilk. Ermeni Meselesine ve Ortadoğu'yu kana bulayan daha birçok mevzuya hiç bakmadığınız bir açıdan bakacaksınız.

The Armenians of Aintab

A TurkÕs discovery that Armenians once thrived in his hometown leads to a groundbreaking investigation into the local dynamics of genocide. †mit Kurt, born and raised in Gaziantep, Turkey, was astonished to learn that his hometown once had a large and active Armenian community. The Armenian presence in Aintab, the cityÕs name during the Ottoman period, had not only been destroyedÑit had been replaced. To every appearance, Gaziantep was a typical Turkish city. Kurt digs into the details of the Armenian dispossession that produced the homogeneously Turkish city in which he grew up. In particular, he examines the population that gained from ethnic cleansing. Records of land confiscation and...

The Last Treaty

In The Last Treaty, Michelle Tusan profoundly reshapes the story of how the First World War ended in the Middle East. Tracing Europe's war with the Ottoman Empire through to the signing of Lausanne, which finally ended the war in 1923, she places the decisive Allied victory over Germany in 1918 in sharp relief against the unrelenting war in the East and reassesses the military operations, humanitarian activities and diplomatic dealings that continued after the signing of Versailles in 1919. She shows how, on the Middle Eastern Front, Britain and France directed Allied war strategy against a resurgent Ottoman Empire to sustain an imperial system that favored Europe's dominance within the nascent international system. The protracted nature of the conflict and ongoing humanitarian crisis proved devastating for the civilian populations caught in its wake and increasingly questioned old certainties about a European-led imperial order and humanitarian intervention. Its consequences would transform the postwar world.

The Armenians and the Fall of the Ottoman Empire

The Armistice of Mudros was signed on 30 October 1918 and on the morning of 13 November 1918, a mighty fleet of battleships from Britain, France, Italy and Greece sailed to Istanbul, and dropped anchor without encountering resistance. This day marked the beginning of the end of the Ottoman Empire, a dissolution that would bring great suffering and chaos, but also new opportunities for all Ottomans, Muslim and non-Muslim alike. Drawing upon a previously untouched collection of Armenian and Ottoman Turkish primary sources, Ari Şekeryan considers these understudied post-war years. Examining the Armenian community as they emerged from the aftermath of war and genocide, Şekeryan outlines their shifting political position and the strategies they used to survive this turbulent period. By focusing on the Ottoman Armistice (1918–1923), Şekeryan illuminates an oft-neglected period in history, and develops a new case study for understanding the political reactions of ethnic groups to the fall of empires and nation-states.

Tajikistan on the Move

The southernmost and poorest state of the Eurasian space, Tajikistan collapsed immediately upon the fall of the Soviet Union and plunged into a bloody five-year civil war (1992–1997) that left more than 50,000 people dead and more than half a million displaced. After the 1997 Peace Agreements, Tajikistan stood out for being the only post-Soviet country to recognize an Islamic party—the Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan (IRPT)—as a key actor in the civil war as well as in postwar reconstruction and democratization. Tajikistan’s linguistic and cultural proximity to Iran notwithstanding, the balance of external powers over the country remains fairly typical of Central Asia, with R...

In the early 1900s, the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) committed the Armenian Genocide as part of their pursuit of Pan-Turkist and Pan-Islamist aspirations known as "ittihadism." The CUP also sought to Turkify non-Muslim property, reminiscent of the Aryanization program in Nazi Germany that targeted Jewish assets. The ittihadist dream was shattered when the Ottoman Empire collapsed following their defeat in the Great War. Established in 1923 as an ittihadist project, the Republic of Turkey adopted "ittihadism" as its fundamental ideology as well. The desire to reach Central Asia and unite with other Turkic nations was initially reignited during World War II. Nonetheless, the dream was...

Salvation and Catastrophe

The Greek-Turkish War of 1919–1923—also known as the Western Front of the Turkish War of Liberation and the Asia Minor Campaign—was one of the key aftershocks of the First World War. Internationally better known for its aftermath, the Compulsory Population Exchange between Greece and Turkey, the Catastrophe of Ottoman Greeks, and the foundation of the Republic of Turkey under Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the war has never been given a holistic treatment in English, despite its long shadow over the Greek-Turkish relationship. The contributors in this volume address this gap by brining to the fore, on its centenary, aspects of the onset, conduct, and aftermath of this war. Combining insights from the study of international relations, political science, strategic studies, military history, migration studies, and social history the contributions tell the story of leaders and decisions, battles and campaigns, voluntary and involuntary migration, and the human stories of suffering and resilience. It is aspects of the story of the last gasp of the Great War in Europe, brought to its final end with Treaty of Lausanne of 1923.
