ABSTRACT

As one of Turkey’s non-Muslim minorities, Turkey’s Greeks have faced substantial pressures since the founding of republican Turkey. As its members could not claim their constitutional rights as citizens of Turkey, emigration soared and the minority reached a point of near extinction. Significant improvements were noted when the EU-supported reform transformed the Turkish state and society from 1999 to 2010, which were not reversed as Turkey relapsed to democratic backsliding in the following years. This article explores the social dynamics and ideological frameworks that have contributed to novel perceptions of the Greek minority since after 2002, the year the Justice and Development Party (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi-AKP) came to power and have deterred a significant deterioration since Turkey’s democratic backsliding began. It also examines the state of Turkey’s Greeks by focusing on the state of the pious foundations, the Papa Eftim affair and the situation in the islands of Gökçeada (Imbros) and Bozcaada (Tenedos).

在公民身份和小米之间：土耳其共和国的希腊少数民族

摘要

作为土耳其的非穆斯林少数民族之一，土耳其的希腊人自土耳其共和国成立以来就面临着巨大的压力。由于其成员无法主张他们作为土耳其公民的宪法权利，移民激增，少数族裔濒临灭绝。欧盟支持的改革在 1999 年至 2010 年期间改变了土耳其的国家和社会时，注意到了重大改进，但随着土耳其在接下来的几年中重新陷入民主倒退，这种情况并没有逆转。本文探讨了自 2002 年正义与发展党 (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi-AKP) 上台以来，促成了希腊少数民族新观念的社会动态和意识形态框架，并阻止了自土耳其民主改革以来的显着恶化。倒退开始了。
