Type: article

Abstract: The article explores a landmark European Court of Human Rights ruling against Greece for violating the freedom of association of a Turkish women’s cultural group in Western Thrace. By refusing registration over the use of the word “Turkish,” Greek courts continued a pattern of denying minority identities despite multiple prior ECtHR judgments.
