This study begins by depicting the relevant and unique contexts for both Turkey and the United States leading up to the Truman Doctrine speech that brought the American mission to Turkey into existence. The remainder of the study uses the National Archive records of the mission itself, related Department of State documents, and memoirs to reveal both the substance of the aid mission and the vagaries of U.S. foreign policy that accompanied it. On the surface JAMMAT was a military modernization program for Turkey as part of the Containment Strategy. Underneath, this study depicts how the actions of JAMMAT also functioned to outfit and direct the Turkish military into a crucial and unknown role in top secret Anglo-American contingency war plans as a sacrificial speed bump in the event of full-scale war with the Soviet Union. Within this context, the work of JAMMAT did serve overt Turkish national security interests, but only secondarily to secret U.S. strategic designs. The great irony of JAMMAT’s legacy is that the iv work of the mission, combined with the impact of the Korean War and the excellent performance of the Turkish Brigades in the UN police action to Korea, ended up increasing the value of Turkey as an American ally in the Cold War to such an extent that the United States pushed for the inclusion of Turkey into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Thus, intentionally and unintentionally, JAMMAT created the Turkish Model that was a blueprint for later U.S. aid programs and left a legacy affecting the security of Turkey, the Middle East, and the United States. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS………………………………………………………………………..iii ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………………………………...iv INTRODUCTION………………………………………………………………………………...1 CHAPTER 1.

CONCLUSION: THE TURKISH MODEL AND THE LEGACY OF JAMMAT...157 BIBLIOGRAPHY………………………………………………………………………………188 vi INTRODUCTION It is common knowledge that the Truman Doctrine was a significant step in the history of America’s foreign affairs, casting a long interventionist shadow on a global scale from 1947 until the present. Some historians consider it America’s declaration of war against the Soviet Union and condemn it for starting the Cold War. Others trumpet it as the policy shift that committed the United States to the defense of the free world and praise it for inaugurating the anti-communist Containment Strategy. Frequently overlooked in the debates over the meaning and/or legacy of the Truman Doctrine are the military missions to Greece and Turkey that the president’s speech produced. While the Greek mission helped to defeat the communist rebels in the Greek Civil War, the mission to Turkey represented an ever greater departure from traditional American foreign policy and exerted a significant impact upon the United States, Turkey, and the Middle East during the early years of the Cold War. The Joint American Military Mission to Aid Turkey (JAMMAT) 1 was a modernization program undertaken by all three branches of the United States military at the beginning of the Cold War. This dissertation examines the mission during the years 1947 to 1952, beginning with the articulation of the Truman Doctrine, which called JAMMAT into existence, and ending with the inclusion of Turkey into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). After 1952 the Mission to Aid Turkey essentially became an unofficial part of the NATO mission rather than a strategic American policy independently helping to shape the early Cold War. The story that this dissertation tells begins well before 1947. The mission was an American idea put into practice 1 The original title was the American Mission to Aid Turkey (AMAT), but this became JAMMAT in October 1949 following a minor reorganization. To avoid confusion and since it superseded AMAT and became the permanent title for the mission and all its records, this study will subsequently only use the JAMMAT acronym. 1 half-way around the globe, in a part of the world informed by its own deep and meaningful history. The American mission operated at the invitation of the Turkish government, in conjunction with the Turkish military, and as the records from the mission and relevant State Department files demonstrate, Turkish agency was an ever present component of the mission and its ensuing relevance. This dissertation, therefore, seeks to place the mission within the two important contexts that it bridged. On the Turkish side the context of Russo-Turkish antagonism influenced virtually all Turkish actions, opinions, and policy decisions that related to the American mission. In the United States the essential context revolved around embarking on a new interventionist foreign policy and the subsequent creation of a developing Cold War policy. It is the thesis of this dissertation that between 1947 and 1952 JAMMAT played a much more decisive role in influencing the geopolitical future of the United States, Turkey, and the Middle East than most historians have previously acknowledged. For Turkey the mission was the key to getting into NATO, fulfilling centuries of Ottoman-Turkish aspirations for security, while for the United States JAMMAT and Turkey together helped draw the new superpower into the defense of the Middle East, before oil and terrorism made it a fixed part of American national security. This dissertation begins by establishing the roots undergirding the American Mission to Aid Turkey, emphasizing the separate paths that Turkey and the United States were on until 1946. The focus of chapter one is the context for Turkey. This chapter establishes the depth and breadth of Russo-Turkish antagonism, while also highlighting the desperate situation that surrounded the recent establishment of the Republic of Turkey. When the American mission began operations in 1947, the Republic of Turkey was a mere twenty-four years old. Nearly every adult, and certainly every leader in Turkey, remembered first-hand the trauma that accompanied the country’s independence. These factors, along with Soviet actions during the 2 Second World War, combined to create enduring Turkish feelings of weakness and vulnerability, and motivated the search for outside assistance, which illuminate the full significance of the American mission in helping Turkey attain NATO membership. Chapter two presents the relevant American context, beginning at the end of World War Two and establishing the European setting that ultimately invited American intervention in the form of the Truman Doctrine. This dissertation argues that despite the United States taking an increasing interest in the situation unfolding in the Eastern Mediterranean immediately after the Second World

  • Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution
    Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution Introduction In his poem, The Second Coming (1919), William Butler Yeats captured the moment we are now experiencing: Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. As we see the deterioration of the institutions created and fostered after the Second World War to create a climate in which peace and prosperity could flourish in Europe and beyond, it is important to understand the role played by diplomacy in securing the stability and strengthening the shared values of freedom and democracy that have marked this era for the nations of the world. It is most instructive to read the Inaugural Address of President John F. Kennedy, in which he encouraged Americans not only to do good things for their own country, but to do good things in the world. The creation of the Peace Corps is an example of the kind of spirit that put young American volunteers into some of the poorest nations in an effort to improve the standard of living for people around the globe. We knew we were leaders; we knew that we had many political and economic and social advantages. There was an impetus to share this wealth. Generosity, not greed, was the motivation of that generation. Of course, this did not begin with Kennedy. It was preceded by the Marshall Plan, one of the only times in history that the conqueror decided to rebuild the country of the vanquished foe.

  • The Peace Conference of Lausanne (1922-1923)
    Bern 1923 - 2008 With the kind support of: Mrs Ionna Ertegiin Mrs Selma Goksel Tiirkiye I~ Bankasi Anadolu Ajans1 Thanks to: Onur Ozc;:eri (Research, text and layout) Agathon Aerni (research) Tuluy Tanc;: (editing) © Embassy of Turkey, Bern 85 years of representation of the Republic of Turkey in Switzerland (1923-2008) The Embassy of the Republic of Turkey, Bern ~u6tic offJ'urk,ey rrfie (Jlresufent It is no coincidence that the Republic of Turkey purchased its first Embassy premises abroad, in Switzerland's capital, Bern, to establish the seat of its diplomatic representation. The negotiation of a peace treaty and its successful outcome took the shape of the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923. The Treaty of Lausanne left an indelible mark in our memory. The aspiration of the Turkish nation to live as a free and independent people is thus anchored in Switzerland, a land that earned the reputation for fairness, equity and justice. The subsequent adoption in 1926 of a Civil Code based on the Swiss example, the Montreux Convention negotiated in 1936 in Switzerland giving full sovereignty on the Turkish Straits and other events have solidified this perception. I am therefore particularly pleased that the roots of the friendship bonds between Turkey and Switzerland and the main events associating Switzerland to Turkey have been compiled in a book. The book also illustrates the reciprocal attention and like minded approaches of both Turkey and Switzerland to further promote bilateral relations between two democracies and to facilitate the realization of aspirations of peace. I would like to express my thanks to the President of the Swiss Confederation, His Excellency Pascal Couchepin and to all who have contributed to the realization of this book.

  • NEIGHBORS and RIVALS: China in Turkey's Educational System
    NEIGHBORS AND RIVALS China in Turkey’s Educational System Eldad J. Pardo and Mehmet Ekinci February 2017 IMPACT-se Suite 15, Belgium House, Givat Ram Campus, Hebrew University of Jerusalem Office/Fax: +972-2-5332497 Website: www.impact-se.org The Root of Anti-Chinese Protests in Turkey: Strategic Insights from Education By Eldad J. Pardo and Mehmet Ekinci1 The attempted July 15 coup d'état in Turkey occurred on the heels of numerous core issues relating to the political culture in this important country. For the purpose of this report, we will examine a less-known incident, while briefly examining the connection to current Turkish education. Just a year before the coup, during the summer of 2015, rampant anti-Chinese protests took place in Turkey with Turkish demonstrators burning Chinese flags and attacking Chinese tourists and restaurants while China warned its citizens traveling in Turkey to take precautions.2 Several demonstrations were held across Turkey to protest alleged Chinese maltreatment of ethnic Uyghurs during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. The protests gathered momentum following alleged reports that China had imposed strict bans on the Uyghur Muslim minority in China's large northwestern region of Xinjiang also known as the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Uyghurs are Muslims who speak a Turkic language.3 It was reported that they had been banned from worship and fasting during Ramadan. Turkish news outlets also reported that Chinese police killed eighteen "Uyghur Turks."4 The Chinese government has said that it fully respects the freedom of Muslim religious beliefs and that the alleged accusations were both completely at odds with the facts and exaggerated by the Turkish media.5 Anti-Chinese demonstrations started in the beginning of July 2015, when Turkish citizens, brandishing sticks and throwing stones, attacked a Chinese restaurant in the city center of Istanbul.
