This two-volume edition examines the new-exile and displacement from Turkey to Germany with its multifaceted dimensions. As both subjects and scholars of this current state of exile, we tried to collect historical testimonies, artistic or academic insights, and analysis of the new-exile and displacement process. Each author contributed to this book hails from diverse professional backgrounds, encompassing a spectrum of social, cultural, and class, gender and race perspectives. Despite all these differences, what unites us and crosses our paths in this book is our shared role as intellectuals in Turkey, tasked with the vital responsibility of seeking and disseminating truth. Within each article of this book, you will encounter not only the personal narratives of the authors but also the tales of their journeys, undertaken with a keen awareness of this responsibility and the enduring pursuit of the truth.

Latife Akyüz, one of the editors, is a member of the Viadrina Center B/ORDERS IN MOTION.
