In this book, the possibility of multiple historical §narratives as a result of variations in ethnic and §religious backgrounds is put forward via an §ethnographic study conducted in Hatay. Hatay s §annexation to Turkey in 1939 is the end point in a §series of events beginning as far back as World War §I. Claims of Turks, French and Arabs on the region §were accompanied by diplomatic relations at the §state level. In the course of these events, the §people in Hatay developed unique strategies to §engineer the best outcome for themselves. Thus, §every group experienced and stored the past in a §different manner. With the aim of revealing such §variation in memory and interpretations of the past, §oral interviews were conducted with a critical §reading of sources. Juxtaposition of the memories §and the written sources displayed significant §differences in representations of the past. As well §as the nature of the transmission of collective §memories, present social, economic, and political §conditions effected the reconstruction of the past §and the explanations of historical events by groups §or individuals of different ethno-religious §backgrounds resulted in variations.
