Description
8vo, Turkey is famed for a history of tolerance toward minorities, and thereis a growing nostalgia for the 'Ottoman mosaic.' In this richly detailedstudy, Marcy Brink-Danan examines what it means for Jews to live as a toleratedminority in contemporary Istanbul. Often portrayed as the 'good minority,'Jews in Turkey celebrate their long history in the region, yet they are subject todiscrimination and their institutions are regularly threatened and periodicallyattacked. Brink-Danan explores the contradictions and gaps in the popular ideologyof Turkey as a land of tolerance, describing how Turkish Jews manage the tensionsbetween cosmopolitanism and patriotism, difference as Jews and sameness as Turkishcitizens, tolerance and violence. 242 pp
