Summary/Abstract: Bilateral relations in the Aegean Sea basin are the product of a rather complicated mixture of components, involving history, politics, national identities, populist narratives, irredentism, nationalism and regional factors, and as such, finding balance has been notoriously elusive. For the better part of their co-existence, Greece and Turkey have been bouncing from escalation to détente; a sequence that seems to have adopted an accelerating frequency in the post-Cold War period. From the Lausanne Treaty and the Convention Concerning the Exchange of Greek and Turkish Populations until the new round of earthquake diplomacy in the aftermath of the 6 February 2023 tragedy in central and southern Turkey, lay one hundred years of turbulent relations between two peoples that share much more than borders, but remain divided over national identities and politics.
