Turkish Intelligence and the Cold War examines the hitherto
unexplored history of secret intelligence cooperation between three
asymmetric partners - specifically the UK, US and Turkey - from the
end of the Second World War until the Turkey's first military coup
d'etat on 27 May 1960. The book shows that our understanding of the
Cold War as a binary rivalry between the two blocs is too simple an
approach and obscures important characteristics of intelligence
cooperation among allies. Egemen Bezci shows that a pragmatic
approach offers states new opportunities to protect national
interests, by conducting ''intelligence diplomacy' to influence
crucial areas such as nuclear weapons and to exploit cooperation in
support of their own strategic imperatives. This study not only
reveals previously-unexplored origins of secret intelligence
cooperation between Turkey and West, but also contributes to wider
academic debates on the nature of the Cold War by highlighting the
potential agency of weaker states in the Western Alliance.
