KONYA VE HAVALİSİ MÜLKİYE MÜFETTİŞİ NUSRET BEY’İN MUHACİRLERE DAİR İNCELEMELERİ
OBSERVATIONS OF IMMIGRANTS BY NUSRET BEY, CIVIL INSPECTOR OF KONYA AND ITS VICINITY

Summary/Abstract: The relationships between non-Muslims, who have been treated with tolerance since Turks stepped into Europe and Muslims, started to deteriorate at the beginning of the 19th century, and took a completely hostile status after the Balkan wars. This situation also arose among other ethnic and religious groups, especially Bulgarians, Greeks and Serbians, and led to massive wars. Migrations to safe zones took place before and after the wars.The Republic of Turkey found the opportunity to deal with the issue of emigrants after the Lausanne Peace Treaty. Our study on the example of Konya is based on records of one on one interviews conducted with immigrants who arrived in Turkey during and after the Balkan wars but were not resettled; and archived documents. Detailed information about emigrants and the problems they had experienced is reached through these records kept by Civil Inspector Nusret Bey.
