Ahmet Ferit Tek was born to Mustafa Resit, an accountant at the Ottoman Ministry of Finance, and his wife Hanife Leyla in Bursa in 1877. To another source, he was born on 7 March 1878. He had a brother İbrahim Refet Te…k. He joined the Young Turks movement, which aimed the restoration of the suspended Ottoman constitution of 1876. He was arrested and exiled to Ottoman Tripolitania, what is today part of Libya. However, he managed to escape to Paris, France via Tunis. In Paris, he studied Political Science, and graduated. During this time, he also wrote for Sura-yi Ümmet ("People's Council", 1902-1929), an Ottoman periodical published by the Committee of Union and Progress of the Young Turks movement. After living in Kazan, Russian Empire between 1903-1908, he settled in Egypt. In Cairo, he wrote for the local newspaper Türk. In 1908, Ahmet Ferit returned to Istanbul, and was appointed history professor at Istanbul University's School of Political Science. He co-founded "Milli Mesrutiyet Firkasi" ("National Constitutional Monarchy Party"). The ideas in the party programme of the nationalistic movement were "The Turks had fought on the frontiers of the Empire for centuries. They had to neglect their own land. Anatolia, the heart of Turkish territories, is uncared. The time has come for Turks to think over their own national destiny." On 25 March 1912, he co-founded Türk Ocaklari (Turkish Hearths), a nationalistic organization, with Mehmet Emin Yurdakul (1869-1944), Ahmet Agaoglu (1869-1939), Yusuf Akçura (1876-1935) and some others. He was elected chairman of the organization in the first board meeting succeeding Yurdakul, the founding president. He published the newspaper Ilham ("Inspiration"), where he wrote hot. During the Turkish War of Independence, he supported the Kemalists. He entered the newly established parliament in Ankara as a deputy of Istanbul. He was appointed Minister of Finance in the 1st cabinet of the Executive Ministers in the Government of the Grand National Assembly on 17 July 1920. He served at this post until the end of the 2nd cabinet of the Executive Ministers on 19 May 1921. He took part in the Turkish delegation sent to the Conference of Lausanne (1922-1923). After the proclamation of the Turkish Republic, he remained in the parliament as a deputy of Kütahya, and was appointed the Minister of the Interior in the 1st and the 2nd cabinet of Ismet Inönü between 30 October 1923 and 22 November 1924. After 1925, he chose a diplomatic career. He was appointed ambassador to London (1925-1932), Warshaw (1932-1939), and Tokio (1939-1943). (Source: Wikipedia). This photograph was taken in Lausanne.
