ABSTRACT:In the summer of 1908, following the recent outburst of the Young Turk Revolution, a wave of strikes swept the companies situated in the Ottoman Empire, including the Aidin Railway Company. The railway, although financed by British financial interests, encompassed a vast Greek labor force as technical support staff. Following the formation of the union, the workers requested a wage raise, as well as better working conditions. The management's denial to concede to the workers' demands resulted in the declaration of three alternate strikes. During the last one, the employees asked for the dismissal of the company's general manager Herbert Barfield on account of his derogatory attitude towards the indigenous personnel. However, the reason behind the strikes resided in the particular position of Asia Minor Greeks in the Ottoman Empire during the period preceding World War I and, more specifically, in their dual identity as both Christians and Ottomans.

ABSTRACT:On an embankment in the Istanbul neighborhood Fener-Balat, a striking edifice looms over the waters of the Golden Horn: Sveti Stefan Church, a cast-iron house of worship that constitutes the most visible legacy of Ottoman Istanbul's Bulgarian Orthodox community. The warm welcome that one is likely to receive at the visitor's cubicle near the entrance to the church contrasts sharply with its solemn architectural atmosphere. Since the completion of renovations in 2018, the so-called Iron Church is open to visitors as a site that celebrates a multicultural image of the Ottoman past. In this essay, I meditate on the convoluted history of Sveti Stefan and its community in order to unsettle the sanitized collective memory and discourse of interreligious tolerance that has come to rest in the church today.
