We are launching the book The War for Anatolia and the Remaking of International Order Greece, Turkey and the End of the First World War edited by Georgios Giannakopoulos (City University). Joseph A. Maiolo (KCL War Studies), and Gonda Van Steen (KCL Hellenic Studies). This edited volume examines the international, transnational and economic dimensions of that conflict and the bitter peace that formally ended it.It analyses the complexities of peacemaking, the foundation of new nations through the violent 'unmixing' of peoples, the traumas of military mobilisation, and the remarkable revival of global capitalism on the ruins of old empires. Taken together, these essays will remind readers that the Great War did not end in 1919, and that the Greek-Turkish story is a critical element in the wider reshaping of twentieth-century international order.

The launch will include a discussion panel of the contributors, editors, series editors, a Q&A session and refreshments.
