Routledge Erdogans New Turkey - Political Crisis Book

Explore the complex political landscape of modern Turkey with this academic study from Routledge. This book examines the development of Turkish politics by focusing on the causes and consequences of the failed coup d'etat on 15 July 2016. It addresses whether this event was the primary cause of the current crisis or an accelerant of existing trends that helped realize latent authoritarian impulses. By combining perspectives from politics, sociology, history, and anthropology, the text provides a deep look into the country's shifting power dynamics. It is designed to serve both scholars looking for rigorous academic analysis and non-specialists seeking to understand the recent history and political shifts in the Middle East. Gain a clearer understanding of how significant historical events shape the modern state and its leadership.
