Rezensionen

Choice Outstanding Academic Title 2006

'...a dense and thought-provoing book. Kalaycio?lu is keenly alive to the ambiguities and contradictions of Turkish politics and careful to explain aspects of Turkish culture, social and political, which are not well understood in Western Europe...' - Angela Gillon, Asian Affairs
