Turkish-Greek relations are marked by a long trajectory of enmity
and tension. This book sets out to explore the 'other side' of that
history, focusing on initiatives that have promoted contact between
the two societies and encouraged rapprochement. Presenting a new
critical re-description of Turkish-Greek rapprochement processes
over a lengthy time span (1974-2013), Turkish-Greek Relations
offers innovative explanations for the emergence of the
reconciliation movement. Instead of lineal continuities, the book
explores different routes that these efforts for rapprochement have
followed, reflected in the divergent visions for a 'Turkish-Greek
friendship' pursued by actors as distinct as radical leftists,
civil society activists, local government representatives, artists
and liberal intellectuals, as well as journalists, politicians and
businessmen. Drawing on political discourse theory and social
anthropology, this book employs extensive archival research into
Turkish and Greek sources, significant numbers of interviews with
pioneers of the rapprochement movement, and an original
ethnographic study, to examine the competing claims for
'Greek-Turkish friendship'. In doing so, it is possible to assess
their successes and failures, prospects and predicaments. A
valuable addition to existing literature, this book will be of
interest to scholars and researchers of International Relations,
Peace and Reconciliation Studies, and Politics.
