| description | French newspapers comment the Macedonian question at the dawn of the Balkan Wars.The aim of this paper is to study how the French newspapers dealt with the Macedonian question at the beginning of the Balkan Wars. A first group (socialists, trade-unionists, anarchists, anticlerical), backs up a peaceful settlement of the dispute and is in favor of the maintenance of the status quo or the creation of a Balkan federation. It is also denouncing the expansionist character of allies’ projects. A second group (right nationalists, antirepublicans) adopts the official rhetoric of the Balkan kingdoms, justifying their mobilization in the name of the defense of Christian communities in the Ottoman Empire, notably in the region of Macedonia. The majority of these articles are instilled with the hate of the Turk and the Muslim, and they are inspired by their authors’ will to take revenge against Germany, whose military industry had equipped the ottoman army whereas the allies’ war machines had been fabricated in France.Finally, a last category (catholics, bonapartists) considers that French economical and cultural interests would be jeopardized in the case of a victory of the Orthodox Balkan kingdoms |
