OSMANLI SONRASI ORTADOĞU’DA ETNOPOLİTİK HAREKETLER VE YANSIMALARINA DAİR: EMPERYAL GÜÇLERİN GÖLGESİ ALTINDA TÜRK-ARAP SINIRINI BELİRLEMEK (1918-1920)
ON ETHNOPOLITICAL MOVEMENTS AND THEIR REFLECTIONS IN THE POST- OTTOMAN MIDDLE EAST: DETERMINING THE TURKISH-ARAB BORDER UNDER THE SHADOW OF THE IMPERIAL POWERS (1918-1920)

Summary/Abstract: This study devotes itself to studying the ethnopolitical mobility that occurred in a part of the old Ottoman geography after the end of the First World War and its impact on the formation of nation-state formations, which are presented as the hallmark of the twenty centuries. Within the scope stated, the work focuses on Ourfa, Aintab and Aleppo, which are located in the south of Anatolia in a basic sense, and tries to reveal how groups belonging to the Turkish and Arab ethnicities residing here contribute to the development and expansion of Turkish and Arab nationalist movements that are in the process of nationalization. Apart from Ourfa, Aintab and Aleppo, the study aimed to give a different dimension to the issue by analyzing the ethnopolitical mobility in places such as Damascus, Beirut, Adana, Mosul, Alexandretta and Diyarbakir at a lower level and on the axis of three points, which are mainly concentrated within the scope of centerperiphery relations. In addition, this study examined the ethnic formations such as Kurds, Circassians and Armenians in the three points considered to be the center of gravity and in the places linked to these within the scope of center-periphery relations. In addition to all these, the study ultimately examines ethnopolitical mobility, sometimes independently and sometimes in relation to each other, but also does not neglect to read it through imperial powers such as England and France, which were deployed to the Middle East in military and political terms after the First World War.
