This book is about the political ideas driving Turkey’s regime change and foreign policy . It de-exceptionalizes Turkish politics, arguing that the “New Turkey” is part of a forerunner in the a global trend of far-right nationalist movements like that of Donald Trump in the United States or Narendra Modi in India. In particular, the book reveals how far-right nationalist strands in Turkey have been nurtured by an existential resentment of the West, similar to those we are seeing in Russia. In tracing this resentment and its historical roots, the book invites policymakers and experts to better understand the new relationships Turkey is building with fellow revisionists including China and Russia, as well as Turkey’s involvement in the wars in Syria and Ukraine and Erdogan’s grand strategy for expansion.
Selim Koru is an analyst at the Economic Policy Research Foundation of Turkey (TEPAV) in Ankara, Turkey, and a fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute (FPRI) in Philadelphia, U.S. His writing has appeared in outlets such as The New York Times, The Atlantic, Foreign Policy, and Foreign Affairs.
