Minority Memory, Identity, and Reconciliation explores the lives of two often overlooked minority communities: the Greek Orthodox minority in Istanbul, Tu?rkiye, and the Turkish Muslim minority in Western Thrace, Greece. As empires dissolved, the leaders and political elites of new, smaller nations that emerged embarked on population exchanges to increase the ethnic and religious homogeneity of their nation-states. Although these two minority communities differ in religious, ethnic, and socioeconomic terms, they both offer unique perspectives on what happens to people who live on what is perceived as the wrong side of an arbitrarily drawn border. Drawing from the personal stories of members of these two minority communities regarding their struggle with displacement, discrimination, and cultural assimilation, as well as comprehensive historical analysis, this book examines how historical traumas, national policies, and sociopolitical dynamics have influenced contemporary minority memory and identity formation. By incorporating interviews with community leaders, civil society representatives, and state officials, this book offers a rich, multifaceted perspective on the processes of memory and identity formation that underscores the broader implications of these processes for international relations in the region and minority rights. Gu?l M. Gu?r pulls together theories of nationalism, collective memory, and narrative practice to highlight the unique process of minority memory work and its role in sustaining minority identity and their advocacy efforts"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aEthnic Conflict: Studies in Nationality, Race, and Culture Series 606 $aTurks$zGreece$zThrace, Western$xSocial conditions 606 $aGreeks$zTurkey$zIstanbul$xSocial conditions 606 $aReligious minorities$zGreece$xSocial conditions 606 $aReligious minorities$zTurkey$xSocial conditions 606 $aCollective memory$zGreece 606 $aCollective memory$zTurkey 607 $aGreece$xEthnic relations 607 $aTurkey$xEthnic relations 607 $aGreece$xRelations$zTurkey 607 $aTurkey$xRelations$zGreece 615 0$aTurks$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aGreeks$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aReligious minorities$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aReligious minorities$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aCollective memory 615 0$aCollective memory 676 $a949.5/0088297 700 $aGür$b Gül M$01828615 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911010540003321 996 $aMinority Memory, Identity, and Reconciliation$94397521 997 $aUNINA
