Beschreibung

This book is the result of a comprehensive and pioneering research
project, and offers innovative insights into the life of the Meskhetian
Turks – an ethnic group collectively deported from Georgia by Stalin
during World War II. The volume examines their integration in the
countries where they now live, their understanding of home and belonging
and their desire to return to Georgia. Apart from thoroughly documenting
the current life of Meskhetian Turks, the research also identifies new
approaches in finding solutions to the issue of Meskhetian Turk
displacement.
