Rezensionen

'Europeanization and Civil Society' offers a theoretically informed, empirically rich, and critical assessment of EU relations with NGOs in Turkey. Markus Ketola shows convincingly how poorly EU civil society conceptions and funding priorities match with conditions on the ground and how local NGOs negotiate external opportunities and domestic demands.
