"In an innovative, comprehensive account of the Lausanne Conference, Hans-Lukas Kieser
recounts how the Conference concluded more than ten years of war and genocide in the
late Ottoman Empire and explores the Treaty of Lausanne's resounding impact in the
Middle East. Kieser shows how the Treaty excluded minority groups and shaped modern
states" ; The Treaty of Lausanne, signed in Switzerland in July 1923, officially settled
the conflict between the Ottoman Empire and the Allied forces. Not only did the Treaty
establish the borders of the modern Turkish republic, but it also defined boundaries,
political systems, and understandings of citizenship in the newly formed post-Ottoman
nation-states. Here, Hans-Lukas Kieser recounts how the eight dramatic months of the
Lausanne Conference concluded more than ten years of war and genocide in the late-Ottoman
Empire. Crucially, the Treaty was in favor of a homogeneous Turkish state in Asia
Minor and became the basis for the compulsory "unmixing of people" that facilitated
the persecution of minority groups, including Armenians, Kurds, and Arabs. Not only
did this significant yet oft-overlooked treaty mark the end of the League of Nations'
project of self-determination and security for small peoples, but it was crucial in
shaping the modern Middle East and dictatorships in Turkey and Europe
