This reader brings to light newly discovered archival material compiled by the Soviet Consulate in Istanbul. The book reveals the lives and experience of Armenians in Turkey in the 1940s, with a particular focus on the process of emigration to Soviet Armenia. The accounts, translated for the first time into English, are comprised of Soviet officials’ reports and first-hand testimony by survivors of their lives during the post-genocide period, making this an invaluable new contribution to the existing collections of Armenian survival testimonies. Placing the archival records on emigration in the context of both life in post-genocide Turkey and the ‘repatriation’ (nergakht) project in the Armenian Diaspora, this book, which also includes the original Russian documents, will be a useful resource for researchers and students of Armenian and Turkish history.
Talin Suciyan is Associate Professor (Privat Dozentin) of Turkish Studies at the Institute of Near and Middle Eastern Studies Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich. She is the author of The Armenians in Modern Turkey: Post-genocide Society, Politics and History (I. B. Tauris, 2016),and Outcasting Armenians: Tanzimat of the Provinces (2023).
