The fate of non-Muslim minorities in Turkey

Shestakov Nikolai Robertovich  (graduate student of the Institute of Asia and Africa Lomonosov Moscow State University)

The article deals with the factors which have determined negative attitude of the leaders of the Ottoman Empire and the Republic of Turkey towards non-Muslim minorities. Although their legal status was thoroughly defined by the Lausanne Treaty after World War I, the policy of the Turkish leadership aimed at the transformation of Turkey into a nation state has led to almost complete displacement of non-Muslims from the country’s social life by mid-sixties of the last century.

Keywords:Tanzimat reforms, Constitution of the 1876, "young turks", demographic situation, Turkish nationalism.
