SMYRNA, 1922: The End of a Cosmopolitan City || Alexander Kitroeff & Fotini Christia

The Consulate General of Greece in Boston and College Year in Athens co-host a lecture, tribute to the city of Smyrna and the 100 years since its destruction on the coast of Asia Minor– modern-day Izmir on the Turkish coast. Alexander Kitroeff, Professor of History at Haverford College and a Member of CYA’s Academic Advisory Roundtable, illuminates what Smyrna was like at the beginning of the 20th century—what was so unique about this international Mediterranean port, and reviews the events that caused the Asia Minor disaster that lead to the destruction of this cosmopolitan city in 1922. Facilitating the discussion is Fotini Christia, Professor of Political Science and Director of the Sociotechnical Systems Research Center at MIT. Tuesday, 15 March 2022, at 12 p.m. (EDT) / 6 p.m. (Athens). SMYRNA, 1922 The End of a Cosmopolitan City
