INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON HATAY ON THE 80TH ANNIVERSARAY OF ITS ACCESSION TO TURKEY
4-6 April 2019 / HATAY
Hatay, one of the oldest settlements of Anatolia, is at the junction of roads connecting Anatolia with Syria and Palestine via Çukurova (Cilicia). What’s more, the most suitable ports to go to the Mediterranean from Mesopotamia are located in this region. Hatay, the history of which dates back eight thousand years, has hosted many civilizations and still carries the traces of these civilizations. Today, people with different ethnic origins and beliefs live together in peace and tranquility with common cultural values here.
Having come under the rule of the Ottoman Empire after Selim I’s campaign in Egypt, Hatay (the Sanjak of Alexandretta) was first occupied by the British and then the French in the aftermath of the Armistice of Mudros. Later on, it remained outside the borders of Turkey as a result of the Agreement of Ankara, signed with France on October 20, 1921. The region came under the mandate of France together with Syria. Turkey, which gained its independence at the end of the military and political struggle carried out under the leadership of Ataturk, brought up this national issue again by skillfully taking advantage of the international conjuncture before World War II. The policy on Hatay was determined by Atatürk himself. A two-stage strategy, according to which Hatay first gained its independence leaving Syria and then joined Turkey, was followed. Within this framework, parliamentary election for Hatay National Assembly was first held and the Republic of Hatay was established on September 2, 1938. The National Assembly of the Hatay State made a unanimous decision at the meeting held on June 29, 1939 to join Turkey and the Republic of Hatay was incorporated into the Republic of Turkey on July 23, 1939.
The international symposium, which is to be held on the occasion of the fact that 2019 marks the 80th anniversary of Hatay’s accession to Turkey, aims at addressing the transformations in Hatay particularly in the period extending from the end of 1939 to the present time based on recent information and documents by considering the historical, geographical, social and cultural richness of Hatay. Furthermore, a platform where researchers carrying out studies on Hatay can present their knowledge at national and international levels will be provided.
