Political Islam in Turkey: Running West, Heading East?

by Gareth Jenkins and G. Jenkins

Book Overview

For all the attention to radical political Islam, there is little awareness that the democratically elected government of Turkey has an Islamic flavor. This book places within historical context the rise of the Islamic political party now governing Turkey and examines the implications of its rule for that country and its relations with Europe, the United States and the Middle East.
