Memories of late Ottoman pluralism and refractions of the Cold War, nation-building ethos and minorities’ right to the city: all embedded in a landscape whose legitimate “owners” are still being questioned.” * Paolo Girardelli, Bogaziçi University, Turkey *\u003cbr\u003e\"Enno Maessen provides a welcome addition to the growing literature on post-1945 urban history. In introducing us to the clubs, cinemas and international schools of a cosmopolitan Istanbul district he also sheds fresh light on European identities on the margins of the continent.\" * Moritz Föllmer, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction   1.
