Description
Both governments saw the exchange as a chance to create societies where a single culture prevailed. And since 1923, the exchange has been invoked by advocates of ethnic separation, from the Balkans to South Asia." "But how did the people who crossed the Aegean feel about this exercise in ethnic engineering, and how did they come to terms with their new homelands? Bruce Clark's account of these turbulent events draws on new archival research in both Greece and Turkey, and interviews with some of the surviving refugees who lived through those years, allowing some of the people involved to speak for themselves for the first time."--BOOK JACKET.
