Istanbul at the Threshold of Nation State by Ülker, Erol;

Rövid leírás:

In 1920s and 30s Turkey, the rise of Christian exclusionary movements and policies were backed by nationalist labor and merchant federations. An Imperial Capital at the Threshold of Nation State traces these formations in political dissent and coalition to the faction split of Turkish national movement in the middle of 1922.

Hosszú leírás:

During the formation of the Turkish national movement, while Istanbul was under British, French, and Italian occupation, a distinct factional split emerged. One side supported the Ottoman sultanate’s sovereignty, while the other championed a populist, republican path. An Istanbul at the Threshold of Nation State contextualizes this history of coalition, political disintegration, and power struggles in Turkey between 1918 and 1923 to highlight the rise of anti-communist movements and the emergence of national labor and merchant confederations that formed xenophobic, Christian exclusionary policies in the 1920s and 30s.
