Abstract
Abstract The Ottoman Salonika was once home to the largest Sephardic Jewish community in the world. They were the undisputed masters in almost all sectors of the city’s economy. The conquest of the city by Greece in 1912, however, deprived the Jews of the Turkish protection they had enjoyed for 482 years. During the war, the Jews had done what they could to resist the Greeks. During the two months following the entry of the Greek army into the city, the Greek population, backed up by the army, carried out pogroms against the Jews. Salonikan Jews were still pro-Turkish in 1913, and regretted the passing of the old order. In 1943 under German occupation more than 95 percent of the Jewish population at that time, were deported, 2,000–2,500, at a time in closed cars in nineteen convoys from Salonika to Auschwitz where they were gassed in extermination camps.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs is a peer reviewed research journal produced by the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs (IMMA) as part of its publication programme. Published since 1979, the journalhas firmly established itself as a highly respected and widely acclaimed academic and scholarly publication providing accurate, reliable and objective information. Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs provides a forum for frank but responsible discussion of issues relating to the life of Muslims in non-Muslim societies. The journalhas become increasingly influential as the subject of Muslim minorities has acquired added significance. About 500 million Muslims, fully one third of the world Muslim population of 1.5 billion, live as minorities in 149 countries around the globe. Even as minorities they form significant communities within their countries of residence. What kind of life do they live? What are their social, political and economic problems? How do they perceive their strengths and weakness? What above all, is their future in Islam and in the communities of their residence? The journal explores these and similar questions from the Muslim and international point of view in a serious and responsible manner.
