This article focuses on the state confiscation of the Surp Hagop Armenian cemetery as more than just another fact about the famous 2013 protests in Gezi Park in Istanbul. In addition to coming to terms with the limits of the Gezi uprising in relation to its claims of inclusiveness, such a focus unravels the key tension between, on the one hand, progressive and left-wing calls to promote the allegedly equal, universal citizen in Turkey through protest movements and, on the other hand, the differential property regime on which the Turkish nation-state is founded, the denial of which continues to erode the possibility of equal citizenship. The article demonstrates how the systematic confiscation of Armenian property is normalized in everyday discourse and politics in Turkey in the service of the broader legal governance of minority difference.

土耳其的财产、剥夺和公民身份；或者，盖兹起义的历史始于Surp Hagop亚美尼亚公墓

本文重点关注国家没收 Surp Hagop 亚美尼亚公墓，这不仅仅是关于 2013 年伊斯坦布尔 Gezi 公园著名抗议活动的另一个事实。除了接受格兹起义在其包容性主张方面的局限性之外，这种关注还揭示了一方面进步派和左翼呼吁促进所谓平等、普世公民的呼声之间的关键紧张关系。另一方面，土耳其通过抗议运动，以及土耳其民族国家赖以建立的差别财产制度，否认这种制度继续侵蚀平等公民身份的可能性。本文展示了如何在土耳其的日常话语和政治中将亚美尼亚财产的系统没收正常化，以服务于更广泛的少数族裔差异的法律治理。
