Greek-Turkish relations, despite some detente periods in their
shared history, have been generally characterized by hostility and
antagonism. But a significant breakthrough in Greek-Turkish
relations was achieved in 1999, although certain signs of
rapprochement were already present in the pre-1999 period. This
date initiated a new era between the two countries thanks to a
series of important events, such as the Helsinki summit, the
earthquakes that occurred in 1999 in Turkey and in Greece, and the
common initiatives of the Greek and Turkish Ministers of Foreign
Affairs. Since then, bilateral relations have changed direction
toward the positive. In order to better understand contemporary
Greek-Turkish relations, this book covers a number of different
aspects including the current state of minorities, the development
of the contemporary Turkish national discourse, the narratives of
friendship between the two nations, the influence of electronic
media for the reconciliation process, and the role of civil actors
for changing the perception of the "other." In a period where
Greece is struggling to overcome its chronic financial problems and
Turkey is being shaped by major political events, the relations
between the two countries become highly important, especially in
addition to their geographical position near a destabilized
geopolitical region. This book is addressed to anyone who is
interested in understanding the relations between Greece and Turkey
today and in forecasting their future relations-and, by
consequence, the future of the eastern Mediterranean area.
