| Abstract
|
:
|
During the First World War, the Russian Caucasian Army had occupied a territory comprising the Ottoman provinces of Trabzon, Erzurum, Van, and, for a shorter period, Bitlis. The region that the Russian forces occupied was depopulated to a great extent due to the deportation and the massacres of the Armenian population and the flight of the Muslims. In the course of the occupation, however, mainly Armenian but also a significant number of Muslim refugees returned to the region. The relative absence of resistance and inter-communal violence during the occupation is striking, given the violent periods immediately before and after the occupation. Concentrating on the Russian practice of power during the occupation period, I will try to provide one plausible reason from among many: namely, that the Russian state and society succeeded in projecting a functioning vision of empire for the occupied regions.
