From Bloodless Revolution to Bloody Counterrevolution: The Adana Massacres of 1909 1 Bedross Der Matossian University of Nebraska–Lincoln Abstract The historiography of the Adana Massacres of 1909 is represented by two diverging views. While some Turkish scholars deny the involvement of the local government officials in the massacres by putting all of the blame on the Armenians who revolted as part of a conspiracy to establish a kingdom in Cilicia, some Armenian scholars, whose work is overshadowed by the Armenian genocide, accuse the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) of acting behind the scenes to destroy the Armenian economic infrastructure in Adana in order to curb any future political and economic development in the area.

  • Regional Disparities and Territorial Indicators in Turkey: Socio-Economic Development Index (SEDI)
    Regional Disparities and Territorial Indicators in Turkey: Socio-Economic Development Index (SEDI) Metin ÖZASLAN*, Bülent DINCER*, Hüseyin ÖZGÜR** *State Planning Organisation **Pamukkale University, Turkey Abstract This aim of this article is to examine the problem of regional disparities in Turkey applying to the economic and social development indicators. One of the main problems encountered in the field of regional development in Turkey is the difficulties in having access to qualified data as is the case in other countries. Therefore, it is of great importance to improve the information gathering and evaluation systems in Turkey. Social and economic development index (SEDI) rankings have contributed to the filling of the gap in this field by providing a considerable data input to development and planning initiatives conducted in Turkey on the basis of territories of various scales (districts, provinces, geographical regions, NUTS I, II, III regions). “The Socio-Economic Development Ranking Survey of Provinces and Regions (2003)”, the main findings of which will be presented in this paper covers 81 provinces according to the existing administrative structure of Turkey and includes 58 variables selected from social (demographic, employment, education, health, infrastructure, other welfare) and economic (manufacturing, construction, agriculture, financial) spheres. The survey has applied Principal Component Analysis (PCA), a developed multi-variable statistical technique which allows the use of interdependent variables. The paper is composed of the following sections: The first section outlines the regional development trends in Turkey and evaluates the increasing importance of territorial development policies, applying to the relevant Turkish and international literature. The second section gives a brief summary of major regional development policies and practices that have been implemented in Turkey and the various problems of regional disparities.

  • Hatay) (1920-1939)
    The Online Journal of Science and Technology - January 2016 Volume 6, Issue 1 FRENCH MANDATORY EDUCATION: THE CASE OF SANJAK (HATAY) (1920-1939) Yusuf KODAZ Selcuk University, Ataturk Principles and Revolution, History Department, Konya, Turkey E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Although Hatay existed in National Pact borders, it was kept out of Turkish borders with the Ankara Treaty signed on October 20, 1921 in order to stop the armed conflict with France under extraordinary conditions of Independence War. Yet, Ankara Government inserted provisions into this treaty in order that the Turks in the district could pursue their national existence. These provisions were preserved in the same way in Lausanne Peace Treaty and other treaties signed between France and Turkey. The case of Syria, mandated by France in The San Remo Conference, was also approved by The Nations League on July 24, 1922. So, Hatay was mandated by France along with Syria. In the period of French Mandate Government, every community was educated in its own language. Formal schools were opened for non-Turkish groups in Hatay and the opening of private schools was supported. While the children belonging to these groups were formerly educated in the Turkish language, in the newly opened schools the Turkish language was not included at all. Moreover, as in Syria, France implemented educational policies in Hatay which would raise mandate government-dependent people. Keywords: French Mandatory, Hatay Introduction Hatay Province, located on the east coast of the Mediterranean sea, is surrounded by Syria on the south and east, the Mediterranean sea on the west, Adana province on the northwest, Osmaniye province on the north, and Gaziantep province on the northeast.
