Conferences and Workshops

We are delighted to announce that the “Boğaziçi History Graduate Conference in Memory of Yavuz Selim Karakışla” will take place on May 15-16 at Boğaziçi University in Istanbul, Turkey.
This conference seeks to foster an environment where graduate students can engage with one another's research, reflect on their experiences as emerging historians, and share what it means and how it feels to produce historical work in the present moment. We hope to collectively cultivate a spirit of solidarity and encourage the formation of enduring scholarly and intellectual collaborations.

On the morning of 16 March 1920, British military forces, which had been present in Istanbul alongside wartime allies France, Italy and Greece since November 1918, conducted a series of arrests of high profile former and serving Ottoman officials and officers, took control of multiple government ministries, and declared martial law. It was not until 6 October 1923 that Allied forces departed the city.
