Münir Müeyyet Bekman & Feridun Fazıl Tülbentçi – Chronology of the Second World War VI (Up to the End of 1946) (İkinci Cihan Harbi Kronolojisi VI (1946 Sonuna Kadar)) – Başvekalet Basın ve Yayın Umum Müdürlüğü Yayınları, Ankara 1948 Edition – Turkish
Description:
İkinci Cihan Harbi Kronolojisi VI (1946 Sonuna Kadar) is the sixth volume of a seven-volume chronological record of the Second World War, documenting the military, diplomatic, and political developments surrounding the conflict on a day-by-day basis. Covering events through the end of 1946, this volume extends beyond the formal end of the Second World War in 1945 and follows the political and diplomatic developments that shaped the new international order in the immediate postwar period.
Among the major developments covered in this volume are the postwar international settlement, the Nürnberg Trials, preparations connected with the Paris Peace Conference, and the growing tensions that would soon develop into the early Cold War. The chronology records diplomatic relations, political developments, official statements, and other international events during this important transitional period.
Published in Ankara in 1948 by the Başvekalet Basın ve Yayın Umum Müdürlüğü, the official information and publishing authority of the Turkish state, the work was intended to inform the Turkish public and government circles about major international developments. Its institutional origin gives the series particular importance as a contemporary official publication rather than an ordinary commercial history book.
The chronology presents developments involving the major international powers in a formal and distanced manner, while also including developments of direct relevance to Turkey, such as regional security, the Straits, and diplomatic activity concerning Ankara. As an official wartime and postwar publication, the work provides valuable insight into how the rapidly changing international environment was recorded and presented from the perspective of the Turkish state during the period.
For collectors of Second World War history, Turkish political history, diplomatic history, wartime publications, and official government documents, this sixth volume is an interesting contemporary source covering the transition from the Second World War to the emerging postwar international order.
