This book explores state-religion relations under a populist
authoritarian ruling party in Turkey. In doing so, it investigates
how the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) instrumentalizes
state-controlled religion to further, defend, legitimatize and
propagate its authoritarian populist political agenda in a
constitutionally secular nation-state. To exemplify this, the
authors examine the Friday sermons delivered weekly in every mosque
in Turkey by the Turkish State's Directorate of Religious Affairs
(Diyanet). By analyzing all sermons delivered between 2010-2021,
the book shows how the Diyanet has enthusiastically adopted AKP's
increasingly Islamist, authoritarian, civilisationist, militarist
and pro-violence populism since 2010, and how it has tried to
socially engineer beliefs in line with this ideology.
