Description

Based on newly accessible Turkish archival documents, Onur Isci's study details the deterioration of diplomatic relations between Turkey and Russia during World War II. Turkish-Russian relations have a long history and to this day some in Russia believe Constantinople to be Russian by right through the Byzantines. Under Ataturk relations improved - he was a master 'balancer' of the great powers. During the Second World War, however, relations between Turkey and the Soviet Union plunged to several degrees below zero, as Ottoman-era Russophobia began to take hold in Turkish elite circles. On the Russian side this was based on long-term apathy stemming from the enormous German investment in the Ottomans and from the Turks on the fear of Russian territorialism. This book offers a new interpretation of Russian foreign policy which drove Turkey into the Second World War on the side of the allies, and eventually into NATO. Onur Isci argues that this was a great reversal of Ataturk era policies, and that it was the burden of history, not realpolitik, that caused the move to the west during the second world war.
