Summary:

"This innovative study challenges accounts of Turkey's politics as driven by "Islamist vs. secularist" competition, offering a new understanding which centres coalitions for and against pluralism. Utilising rich primary and secondary data, Nora Fisher-Onar introduces an analytical framework for capturing causal complexity in political contestation"-- Provided by publisher
