Summary: Greek Denial of the Macedonian Name
Comment: The most important thing to remember about the "Macedonian conflict" is that the Greek position has changed dramatically over the past decade. Official Greek government policy was that Macedonia did not exist. When Greece took over Aegean Macedonia in 1913, they killed, tortured and ethnically cleansed hundreds of thousands of Macedonians. They changed the names of people, villages, and landmarks from Macedonian to Greek in their attempts to eradicate the Macedonian name. Two things to remember:

1. It is ironic that Greeks now "love Macedonia" when they tried to eradicate its very existence.

2. If Macedonia has always been Greek, why did the Greek government deny its existence until the 1980's?



Editorial Reviews:

This text provides a analysis of the events which took place in Macedonia between 1893 and 1908 as reported by diplomatic and military representatives of the Great Powers. It focuses on the activities of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization, illustrating its roles as an independent organization with its own ideas, goals and methods. The author conducts a review of the aims and policies of the Great Powers towards Macedonia, with France, Russia, Austria, Britain and Italy each establishing their own "spheres of influence". She also provides an interpretation of the reasons for the failure of diplomacy and foreign intervention to solve the complex and still pertinent "Macedonian question".
