Turkey and the Rescue of European Jews: Routledge Studies in Modern European History

Autor I. Izzet Bahar
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 19 dec 2014
This book exposes Turkish policies concerning European Jews during the Hitler era, focusing on three events: 1. The recruitment of German Jewish scholars by the Turkish government after Hitler came to power, 2. The fate of Jews of Turkish origin in German-controlled France during WWII, 3. The Turkish approach to Jewish refugees who were in transit to Palestine through Turkey. These events have been widely presented in literature and popular media as conspicuous evidence of the humanitarian policies of the Turkish government, as well as indications of the compassionate acts of the Turkish officials vis-à-vis Jewish people both in the pre-war years of the Nazi regime and during WWII. This volume contrasts the evidence and facts from a wealth of newly-disclosed documents with the current populist presentation of Turkey as protector of Jews.

Recenzii

"Given the contemporary Turkish shift from partnership with to hostility toward Israel, a necessary reevaluation of this scenario has emerged.  Bahar’s incisive study examines the Turkification policy of the new republic through the 20th century, including the problems of the Greeks (mostly expelled), the Armenians (mostly killed), and the Kurds (politically and militarily restricted).  More scholarly than Stanford Shaw’s Turkey and the Holocaust (CH, Nov'93, 31-1690) and critical of Corry Guttstadt’s Turkey, the Jews, and the Holocaust (CH, Dec'13, 51-2220), Bahar offers extensive documentation and archival material in a more nuanced and balanced version of the Turkish role in the rescue of Jews. Summing Up: Recommended." - S. Bowman, emeritus, University of Cincinnati, CHOICE

Descriere

This book focuses on the recruitment of German Jewish scholars and academicians by the Turkish Republic shortly after Hitler came to power, and the fate of Jews of Turkish origin in German-controlled France during WWII. It contrasts the evidence and facts from a wealth of newly disclosed documents to provide a revised account of Turkey’s role in these dark and catastrophic years.
