Local History of the National Struggle 1918-1923 (Vol 8): Diyarbakır - Mardin - Elâzığ - Malatya - Adıyaman Tunceli - Siirt - Batman -Şırnak
The series titled Local History of the National Struggle 1918-1923 renews Türkiye's local memory of the National Struggle from city to city and shows how the years of the National Struggle were experienced in all over the country. With the participation and contribution of many academics and researchers, this study, in which the traces of the National Struggle at the local level are compiled and evaluated, aims to create a historical memory that people can feel themselves as a part of by harnessing the democratic, civil and participatory means of local history.
In this volume, the political, military, social, economic and cultural aspects of the provinces of Diyarbakır, Mardin, Elâzığ, Malatya, Adıyaman, Tunceli, Siirt, Batman and Şırnak during the National Struggle are discussed within the framework of available sources. Since these provinces were not directly occupied during the National Struggle, very few studies have been conducted on these cities. In this context, along with a very comprehensive archive study, a large number of documents containing the correspondence of the political, military and civilian institutions of the period, newspapers of the period, local history studies and research works have been examined and a wide literature review has been made on the subject, and all information on the subject has been tried to be reached.
