State Secularization in Turkey, Iran, and Russia

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides an in-depth comparative historical analysis of state secularization in three major Eurasian countries: Turkey, Iran and Russia. To capture the aforementioned variation in state secularization across three countries that have been hitherto analyzed as separate studies, Birol Bäkan adopts three modes of state secularization: accommodationism, separationism and eradicationism.
