  The 1922-34 exchange of minorities between Greece and Turkey was the first legally mandated compulsory population movement of its scale and sophistication. The book will demonstrate how such population movements were justified at the time as a radical version of minority protection, and how it impacted on ideas of ethnic nation-building.
