She investigates the effectiveness and efficiency of land and labor markets in spreading economic opportunities within agriculture and, thereby, in reducing rural poverty and inequality using Turkey as a case study. The core theme in this book is the "connectedness" between land ownership inequality and how markets mediate economic opportunities to people.
