Turkey - A Modern History (Paperback, 4th Revised edition)

This revised edition builds upon and updates its twin themes of
Turkey's continuing incorporation into the capitalist world and the
modernization of state and society. It begins with the forging of
closer links with Europe after the French Revolution, and the
changing face of the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century. Zurcher
argues that Turkey's history between 1908 and 1950 should be seen
as a unity, and offers a strongly revisionist interpretation of
Turkey's founding father, Kemal Ataturk. In his account of the
period since 1950, Zurcher focuses on the growth of mass politics;
the three military coups; the thorny issue of Turkey's human
right's record; the alliance with the West and relations with the
European Community; Turkey's ambivalent relations with the Middle
East; the increasingly explosive Kurdish question; and the
continuing political instability and growth of Islam.
