Index
Turkey's future will be shaped fundamentally by the fate of its Kemalist
legacy. A range of ideological currents today
Islamists, and so-called neo-Ottomanists
received, and still dominant, Kemalist version of the country's history.
This book argues that Turkey cannot meet adequately the challenges
and opportunities which Its Middle East location offers (both its near
neighbours and its more distant Turkic cousins in the newly
independent states of Central Asia) so long as its ruling elite and its
politically influential military continue to deny the significant continuities
between the country's imperial Ottoman past and the Kemalist project
of the 20th century.
The authors examine Turkey's attempts at modernization, starting with
the Ottomans' own reform attempts and accelerating with the
Republic and the country's growing orientation towards the West since
1945.
Kurdish nationalism have posed more recently. And they explore the
difficulties and possibilities that Turkey faces in its hinterland
and Persian neighbours, Central Asia, and Israel. How it plays out its
role as a regional actor will, they argue, be decided by the outcome of
the profound ideological and political conflicts within the country. More
particularly, Turkey cannot take modernization and democratization
further until it faces up to the authoritarian legacy that Ottoman
political culture passed on to the Turkish Republic. |
