Book excerpt: 'In 2014, Crimea was catapulted into the worldwide media following its forcible annexation by Russia. The Crimean Tatars, who were deported en masse in 1944 and who managed to return home in the 1990s, were threatened once again with deportation. Filiz Tutku Aydin's book tells the remarkable story of how in the course of the twentieth century the Crimean Tatars managed to survive the tribulations of exile in foreign lands and how some managed against incredible odds to return home. Aydin's book is truly unique in that it tells us not only about Crimean Tatar exiles in Soviet Central Asia, but also about the little known experience of diasporan communities in Romania, Turkey, and the United States.' -Paul Robert Magocsi, University of Toronto, Canada 'Filiz Tutku Aydın is steeped in the history, language and culture of Crimean Tatars and their tragic history of dispersal. Using careful exegesis of the comparative literature and rich descriptions of Tatars abroad, the author graphically shows how their diaspora was mobilized despite their poignant history of exile and deportation.' -Robin Cohen, Professor Emeritus of Development Studies, University of Oxford, UK 'Filiz Tutku Aydın treats this complex subject with the deep insight of an insider and a sound analysis of a scholar.' -Hakan Kırımlı, Bilkent University, Turkey 'This is a fascinating study of Crimean Tatars as a transnational nation.' -Martin Sökefeld, Luwig Maximilan University of Munich, Germany This book explains the unexpected mobilization of the Crimean Tatar diaspora in recent decades through an exploration of the exile experiences of the Crimean Tatars in Central Asia, Middle East, Eastern Europe, and North America.

Download or read book Minorities at War written by Elmira Muratova and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-11 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection focuses on Ukraine’s ethno-cultural minorities who in recent years have undergone forced displacement, emigration, the destruction of familiar ways of life, and a transformation of identity and language behaviour. The book examines the impact of Russia’s war against Ukraine, which began with the annexation of Crimea and the war in Donbas in 2014. It shows what happens to the cultural identities of minority groups and considers the mechanisms and components of their resilience in times of crisis. Key themes addressed include minorities’ collective memory and coping strategies, mobilisation and humanitarianism, forced displacement, and the preservation of identity. While most works on the Russo-Ukrainian war focus on the international context and the causes of the war and its humanitarian consequences for the population of Ukraine and the region as a whole, this book seeks to mainstream the issue of ethno-cultural minorities, which is often neglected in the coverage of this type of conflict. The book will be of interest to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of Law, Political Science, Anthropology, Human Geography, Religious Studies and War and Peace Studies.

Download or read book A Cruel Theatre of Self-Immolations written by Grzegorz Ziółkowski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Cruel Theatre of Self-Immolations investigates contemporary protest self-burnings and their echoes across culture. The book provides a conceptual frame for the phenomenon and an annotated, comprehensive timeline of suicide protests by fire, supplemented with notes on artworks inspired by or devoted to individual cases. The core of the publication consists of six case studies of these ultimate acts, augmented with analyses and interpretations hailing from the visual arts, film, theatre, architecture, and literature. By examining responses to these events within an interdisciplinary frame, Ziółkowski highlights the phenomenon’s global reach and creates a broad, yet in-depth, exploration of the problems that most often prompt these self-burnings, such as religious discrimination and harassment, war and its horrors, the brutality and indoctrination of authoritarian regimes and the apathy they produce, as well as the exploitation of the so-called "subalterns" and their exclusion from mainstream economic systems. Of interest to scholars from an array of fields, from theatre and performance, to visual art, to religion and politics, A Cruel Theatre of Self-Immolations offers a unique look at voluntary, demonstrative, and radical performances of shock and subversion.

Download or read book Patrimonialization on the Ruins of Empire written by Maximilian Hartmuth and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2024-08-31 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the failed Siege of Vienna of 1683, the Ottoman Empire gradually withdrew from Europe. Even so, monumental reminders of its former presence survived across the continent. The contributors to this volume show that the various successor states adopted substantially different approaches towards their Ottoman architectural inheritance. Even within the same countries, different policies appear to have been pursued in different periods, in keeping with differing circumstances. Case studies inquire from diverse vantage points how this heritage has been coped with discursively and materially. Importantly, readers will find that it is almost impossible to disentangle these two levels of action.
