The New Turkey

0 - Default Title
Description
Turkey is a country in a state of flux. In the last few years a series of far-reaching political and economic reforms has swept away much of the old order which ruled the country for so long. But resistance to reform remains strong. Pressure for change has come from ordinary people; it's also been motivated by the dominant issue of Turkish political life - the pursuit of membership of the European Union. And yet Turkey remains a mystery to many outsiders; a complex country hard to understand. It's secular and Muslim, Western and Eastern, democratic and authoritarian, all at the same time. This book examines the potential and the problems of the new Turkey, drawing on first hand interviews and observations gathered over several years.
