Turkish politics were remarkably reshaped in the early 2000s
following the decline of the Islamist National View and the
electoral breakthrough of the new Justice and Development Party
(JDP) headed by Erdogan. Beside its Islamist credentials, Erdogan's
JDP consistently and convincingly presented itself as the
'populist' defender of the downtrodden sectors of Turkish society.
However, with Erdogan's rise as the popularly elected president in
2014, Turkey's already fragile democratic system was driven in a
more authoritarian direction. Shifting the focus away from
structural factors, this book analyzes the political appeal and
organisation of the JDP that granted them such unprecedented
electoral resilience. With critical but accessible theoretical
discussions, Toygar Sinan Baykan locates the JDP within the wider
literature of populism, Islamist party politics, party
organisations and authoritarianism. Over fifty in-depth interviews
also help to relate the intimate story of Turkey's socio-cultural
divides and the JDP's intraparty organisational dynamics, thereby
offering a fresh account of Turkish politics.
