Publisher's Synopsis
Critical Times in Turkey: And England�������s Responsibility is a book written by Georgina King Lewis that explores the political and social turmoil in Turkey during the early 20th century. The author argues that England played a significant role in shaping the events that led to the fall of the Ottoman Empire and the rise of Mustafa Kemal Atat�����rk�������s modern Turkish Republic.The book provides a detailed analysis of the complex political and social landscape in Turkey during this period, including the role of the Ottoman Empire in World War I, the Armenian Genocide, and the emergence of nationalist movements. The author also examines the various political and economic interests of England in the region, including the exploitation of oil reserves and the establishment of a British mandate in Iraq.Throughout the book, Lewis argues that England bears a significant responsibility for the instability and violence that plagued Turkey during this time. She contends that England�������s policies and actions in the region were motivated by self-interest and a desire to maintain its dominance in the Middle East, rather than a genuine concern for the welfare of the Turkish people.Overall, Critical Times in Turkey: And England�������s Responsibility provides a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of a critical period in Turkish history and the role that England played in shaping it. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Middle East and the complex relationship between Western powers and the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
