The Alevis are a significant minority in Turkey, and now also in the countries of Western Europe. Over the past century, many of them have migrated from rural enclaves on the Anatolian plateau to the great cities of Istanbul and Ankara, and from there to the countries of the European Union. This book asks who are they? How do they construct their identities - now and in the past; in Turkey and in Europe? This collection offers a new and significant contribution to the study of migration and minorities in the wider European context.
