| Итог: | Abstract: this study evaluates the Lausanne Population Exchange Protocol and its long-term effects on the Turkish-Greek civil dialogue. The Lausanne Population Exchange Protocol was one of the most contentious protocols of the Lausanne Treaty. The Protocol regulated the compulsory exchange of the Greek Orthodox inhabitants of Turkey with the Muslim inhabitants of Greece. The compulsory character of this forced migration has been debated a lot since the Lausanne Conference in 1923. It was a challenge to the civilization standards in 1920s. A hundred years after, it is a challenge to the contemporary human rights standards. However, the cross-border civil society organizations established by the descendants of the exchanged communities have a potential to reverse the situation and transform this diplomatic stalemate into a peaceful dialogue ground on the centenary. |
