Reviews
‘This classic analysis of the Lausanne Convention of 1923, which provided for the exchange of 1,221,849 Greek refugees from Asia Minor with 354,647 Turks from Macedonia, is more than a historical study … Pentzopoulos provides today’s reader with a brilliant exposition of the perennial dilemmas arising from a humanitarian vision of minorities in a world of nation-states.’ — Times Literary Supplement
