This study offers a balanced and factually grounded account of the Turco-Greek Exchange of Populations, an event often subject to distortion in nationalist historiography and scholarly works. It incorporates the Turkish perspective, including the decision-making process and the experiences of Muslim refugees, challenging the prevailing Greek-centric view and questioning the event's perceived success. By focusing on ordinary people affected by the Lausanne Treaty, the book critiques official narratives and highlights the profound, often devastating, implications of policy decisions.
