It traces the shift from the early liberal era (2002-16), which was characterised by EU integration efforts, economic globalisation and regional engagement, to a nationalist, security-driven approach. Particular focus is given to the consolidation of authoritarian rule and Turkey's transition to a presidential system in 2018. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInitially, the Arab Spring positioned Turkey as a model for political Islam, but regional upheavals, the 2013 Gezi Park protests and the 2016 coup attempt accelerated a turn toward authoritarianism and securitisation. The study explores how the JDP leadership moved from democratic pluralism to nationalist and authoritarian consolidation, reshaping Turkey's diplomatic and geopolitical posture. Hasan K�sebalaban argues that domestic political struggles have shaped Turkish foreign policy as much as external pressures. Through a multidisciplinary lens, this book provides a nuanced understanding of Turkey's geopolitical trajectory and its broader implications for international relations. K�sebalaban implements a new framework to examine the divisions within both secularism and Islamism, and explores how foreign policy choices both shape and are shaped by these internal divisions.","brand":"Edinburgh University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47594069983383,"sku":"9781399542937","price":13034.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781399542937.webp?v=1774984588","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-transformation-of-turkish-foreign-policy-islamism-and-nationalism-9781399542937","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
