What place does Turkey occupy in the world today? Is it a bridge
between Asia and Europe, or a bridgehead? Is Turkey part of Europe?
In spite of the fine sentiments of Brussels and the desire
displayed by all Turkish administrations for the past 15 years to
become part of the EU, a game of bluff seems to be unfolding,
marked by postponements, hesitations and unspoken agenda. But this
bureaucratic approach masks other pressing issues such as the
question of military power, Islam, the Kurdish questions, Cyprus
and immigration. In the context of these issues, the Turkish
question serves to cast the spotlight on new challenges for Europe:
where should the frontiers of Europe be drawn? What is the place of
Islam in it? What is the best way to deal with minorities? The
spectrum of authoritative analyses in this vital new book
demonstrates that Turkey presents, to an enlarged Europe, the image
of its own contradictions, but also its ambitions.
