THE INQUIRIES OF BRITISH LIBERALS INTO THE DESTINY OFMUSLIM AND TURKISH INHABITANTS OF THE BALKANS IN THELATE NINETEENTH AND EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURIES

Öz:
This study delineates the image of Muslims and Turks in Ottoman “European Turkey” as perceived and constructed by the two influential opinion-forming Liberal British periodicals, namely the Contemporary Review and the Fortnightly Review, between the years of 1865-1923. Being a part of the intellectual influence of modern European nationalism repertoire over the Balkans, the convictions of British journal writers indisputably played a crucial role as a source of both inspiration and vindication in the formation and consolidation of Balkan nationalist ideals and practices. By exploring the literary treatment of Muslim and Turkish inhabitants of the Balkans by these prominent British periodicals this study aims to better understand and contextualize the processes of expulsion, assimilation or accommodation that the Muslim and Turkish population faced after the Ottoman power was partly or completely dismantled in the region and was replaced by successor Balkan nation-states which as essentially ethnic polities saw their Muslim minorities as “aliens” and monumental reminders of the “Ottoman yoke”.

Geç Ondokuzuncu ve Erken Yirminci Yüzyılda İngiliz Liberallerinin Gözünden Balkanlar’da Yerleşik Müslüman ve Türk Nüfusun Serencamı

Öz:
Bu çalışma Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun Avrupa topraklarında yaşayan Müslüman ve Türk tebaasına ilişkin imajın Büyük Britanya’nın son derece etkili ve kamuoyu yaratma gücüne sahip iki Liberal fikirdergisinde, yani Contemporary Review ve Fortnightly Review’da, 1865-1923 yılları arasında nasıl bir inşa sürecine tabi tutulduğunu ele almaktadır. Modern Avrupa milliyetçiliğine ilişkin repertuarın Balkan coğrafyası üzerindeki entelektüel etkisinin bir parçası olan bu iki sureli yayının yazarlarının Müslümanlara ve Türklere ilişkin görüşleri gerek esin kaynağı gerekse de meşrulaştırma aracı olmak bakımından Balkan milliyetçi ideallerinin ve pratiklerinin üzerinde yaşamsal bir rol oynamıştır. Balkanlarda yerleşik Müslümanların veTürklerin bu iki dergi tarafından nasıl ele alındığını incelemek söz konusu azınlık nüfusunun ilerleyendönemlerde karşı karşıya kaldığı dışlama, yerinden etme, asimilasyon ya da içerme süreçlerini daha iyianlamamızı ve açıklayıcılığı daha yüksek bağlamlara yerleştirebilmemizi sağlayacak türden veriler sunar.
