Recenzii
'An original and perceptive piece of work. In his focus upon the country's turn towards democracy after 1950, Nicholas Danforth depicts the development of politics and identity in Turkey in a new light. Danforth challenges popular convention in demonstrating the ongoing resonance of ideas and institutions dating back to the Ottoman Empire. The beginning of the Cold War, we learn, marks important moments of continuity and rupture in terms of Turkey's relationship with the West and secularism. In his retelling of this critical period in the country's history, Danforth offers readers a new point of orientation in dealing with the legacies of Turkey's imperial past. It is a book that is groundbreaking in many ways.' Ryan Gingeras, Naval Postgraduate School
'Danforth's volume is the best interpretive study of modern Turkey in some time … Anyone interested in democracy should read this insightful book … Highly recommended.' R. W. Olson, Choice
