It was the single largest ethnic cleansing during the Cold War period in Europe after the winding up the post war 'population transfers' of mainly ethnic Germans in the early 1950s. This expulsion of Turks and Muslims from Bulgaria was the sole mass expulsion that ever breached the Iron Curtain. Not only did the 1989 ethnic cleansing trigger the end of communism in Bulgaria, but was also followed by an unprecedented return of almost half of the expellees. Despite the unprecedented character of this 1989 expulsion and its wide-ranging ramifications, this is the first detailed analysis of these events.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tomasz Kamusella\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138480525\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138480520\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/23\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Tomasz Kamusella","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48437859877119,"sku":"9781138480520","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_69c161bd-1e05-4ebd-9b4e-f6be6b0728e0.jpg?v=1777167258","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ethnic-cleansing-during-the-cold-tomasz-kamusella-9781138480520","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
