The ‘Other' Citizens: Armenians in Turkey between isolation and (dis)integration
- Abstract:
- More than a century after the Armenian Genocide, extreme “othering” and demonization of the “other” continues in Turkey today. Anti-Armenian public rhetoric, misrepresentations, false rumors, and assumptions are commonplace in print and broadcast media, among government officials, public figures, and the general public. Indeed, being an Armenian in the post-Genocide Republic of Turkey has meant going through a continuous process of state imposed and societal minoritization in virtually all aspects of communal and individual life. The Armenian community is “an ever-precarious entity in Turkey,” as Lerna Ekmekçioğlu describes in her study of the community during the early republican period.
