Turkey by Erik-Jan Zürcher
A Modern History
A concise, narrative survey of Turkey’s transformation from the late Ottoman world to a modern nation-state, tracing the collapse of empire, the founding reforms and secularizing project of the early republic, and subsequent shifts through single‑party rule, democratization, military interventions, economic liberalization, and the rise of political Islam and identity conflicts; the book analyzes state-society relations, institutional continuities and ruptures, and the social, cultural, and international forces that have shaped Turkey’s contested modernization up to the contemporary era.
