The Cultural Sustainability: Merzifon Anatolia College, Turkey Gizem Özerol1 , Aysu Akalın Abstract
ARTICLE ISSN 2651 - 5210 MODULAR 2019;2(2):21-45 The Cultural Sustainability: Merzifon Anatolia College, Turkey Gizem Özerol1, Aysu Akalın2 Received: 19 November 2019 - Accepted: 17 December 2019 Abstract The article proposes an analysis of the role of American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) during the late Ottoman and the early nationalist (Republican) Turkey and focusses especially on the ABCFM organization and the role of Protestant missionaries, which they succeeded in establishing autonomous schools, hospitals, clinics, orphanages, lodgings and ateliers not only in the capitals, but also in provinces. The American Board began evangelism among Armenians, and the education and the social services became part of the Protestant movement in the Near East. Following efforts to Christianize the nations through evangelism, in the mid of 19th century, Merzifon (Marsovan) province was chosen due to its location in the middle of Anatolia and Merzifon Anatolia College was designed as an important ‘station’ in order to support the American missionary movements. Then, between the years 1886 and 1938, ABCFM built strong connections with Anatolia College in Merzifon to gain a very important strategic position. In the context of the First World War, the function of the Anatolia College buildings has changed for different aims; the military used these buildings as the Artillery Regiment. After the war the ABCFM’s network broke down but its strong contribution to present education in Turkey is inevitable. The site as a heritage is still an active part of the city’s cultural life with some existing buildings of ABCFM supporting culture and education. -

Yönetim ana başlığı altında Tanzimat öncesinde Sivas Şehri’nin yöneticileri ve yönetim mekanizmasının nasıl işlediği incelenmiştir.

In these six years, the institution has clearly grown more complex with addition of the Anatolia Elementary School, the MBA at ACT and a World Bank professional training program throughout Southeast Europe. Yet we have worked hard, and with some success I believe, to keep at each level the human scale and focus on the individual student for which, well into its second century, our institution continues to be known. At the six-year mark, I consider myself blessed with a superb senior management team. Dr. Panos Kanellis, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, will, along with me, be devoting particular attention to ACT over the coming year. -

The project is made possible through the partnership of SALT, that has been cataloging and digitizing the archive, and the American Research Institute in Turkey (ARIT), the archive’s caretaker.

Hovhannisyan’s residency at SALT was supported by the Hrant Dink Foundation Turkey-Armenia Fellowship Scheme funded by the
