'Ambassador Cevat Açikalin, who twice acted as Secretary-General of the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, played a vital and at times central role in the implementation of Turkish foreign policy in the 1940s and 1950s.

287 pages. Footnotes. Select Bibliography. Index. "The traditional view of peace and war holds that irrespective of how they may be defined and justified, they represent opposit poles of experience. Today, however, preparedness for war is a continuous activity, reaching into all aspects of society and eroding, even nullifying, conventional distinctions about the 'civil' and 'military' spheres of life. The reasons are mainly to be found in men's response to the opportunities offered by technology in the industrial age." - from Preface. Clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Price-clipped dust jacket now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart. A handsome copy of this fascinating study. Book

New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 152 p. The history of the church diplomacy in Turkey. As a result of the hostility of the Third French Republic which endured from 1870 to 1940, many religious orders were disbanded in France and few orders could survive because of the governmental pressure. A diplomatic crisis broke out between the Holy See and France. The French ambassador to Rome was recalled and the Papal Nuncio to France was expelled. This crisis affected also the strength of France in Orient, who was the Protector of the Latin Catholics and in a wide coverage, all the Catholic subjects. During the sultanate of Abdülhamid II, the role of the Apostolic Delegate (representative of the Pope before the diplomatic relations started) was enhanced in front of the Sublime Porte. Because of this diplomatic crisis between the Holy See and France, there have been serious diplomatic conflicts between the Apostolic Delegate in Istanbul and French ambassadors. It is possible to read these conflicts through the diplomatic archives and correspondences, especially through the recently published documents, which are part of the Vatican Secret Archives. During the pontificate of Pope John XXIII in 1960, the diplomatic relations between the Holy See and Turkey started by the appointment of a Turkish Ambassador to the Holy See and an Apostolic Nuncio to Ankara. This project is aiming to focus on the challenge of power between France and the Holy See in front of the Sublime Porte for keeping the right of representing and protecting the Catholic Subjects in the 19th and 20th centuries, including the establishment and development of the French Protectorate in the Ottoman lands, its abolishment and the diplomatic attempts of Apostolic Delegates for being recognized by the Turkish authorities as the representative of the Pope for Catholic subjects, until the reciprocal appointment of ambassadors in 1960.
