Description
Due to its limited historical impact, the
Ottoman-Greek War of 1897 is almost a forgotten
incident today. Yet, although the war hardly changed
anything with its outcomes, the crisis that led to it
had been among the most critical issues of
international politics. This monograph, pertaining to
the origins of the Ottoman-Greek War of 1897, focuses
on the political and diplomatic proceedings that took
place between the Greek occupation of Crete on 13
February and the declaration of war by the Ottoman
Empire on 17 April. Using a multi-sided bibliography,
including a sizeable set of unpublished Ottoman
documents, Ekinci explores how the crisis was handled
in stanbul, Athens, and European capitals, and why
the efforts of the Great Powers and the Ottomans to
prevent war fell short in the end. Mehmet U ur Ekinci is a doctoral student at Bilkent University,
Ankara. He holds a Master's degree in History and a Bachelor's
degree in International Relations from the same university. His
research interests include 19th century Ottoman political
history, Turkish foreign policy, and classical Turkish
music.
