The United States Response to Turkish Nationalism and Reform,
1914-1939 was first published in 1971. Minnesota Archive Editions
uses digital technology to make long unavailable books once again
accessible, and are published unaltered from the original
University of Minnesota Press editions. The history of
Turkish-American relations in the early years of the twentieth
century, before World War II, forms a significant part of the
background necessary to an understanding of the present political
importance to America of the Middle East. This book, after a brief
introduction covering the period before 1914, analyzes in detail
the course of relations between Turkey and the United States from
the beginning of World War I to the start of World War II. The
period which Professor Trask covers in this study was a critical
time in both nations' histories. The relations between the two
countries varied from cool neutrality (1914) to a rupture of formal
ties (1917) to rapprochement (by 1939). Conditions affective
Turkish-American contacts included two world wars, a major world
depression, and, especially, a Turkish nationalist revolution under
the leadership of Kemal Ataturk. Professor Trask analyzes the
process of American accommodation to this revolution, with emphasis
on diplomatic, political, economic, social, and cultural ties, and
points out the implications for the balance of power during World
War II and the cold war.
