Turkey's Accession to the European Union - An Unusual Candidacy (Paperback, Softcover reprint of hardcover 1st ed. 2009)

European views on Turkey s membership in the EU have been split between those in support of its full integration and those advocating a privileged partnership. To the extent that many of the latter proposals imply that Turkey will be partially integrated within Europe in certain areas, the question of Turkey s accession is probably not about if, but about how much integration there will be within the Union s structures. The purpose of this book is not to offer a definitive response to this question. The book aims instead to examine the complexity of the issues pertaining to Turkey s prospective EU membership by presenting several, often divergent, accounts of the political, security and socio-economic dimensions of the entire process. The book provides a forum for an exchange of views among distinguished scholars and researchers from different national backgrounds in order to contribute to the ongoing public discussion of Turkey s accession.

• Sophisticated, informative and refreshing in its argumentation, the book provides an excellent overview of the complexities of Turkey s accession to the EU membership.

Professor Mustafa Aydin, TOBB University of Economics and Technology

• A refreshing view from the European periphery, an original mirror of the Union's central challenges.

Professor Georges Prevelakis, University of Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne"
