About this book

Do NGOs strengthen Turkey's efforts at Europeanization and democratization or do they use EU funding to serve other interests?This book offers a critical investigation of the relationship between Turkish NGOs and the European Union (EU) and a nuanced assessment of the opportunities and limitations to fashioning social change by funding NGOs.

Reviews

'Europeanization and Civil Society' offers a theoretically informed, empirically rich, and critical assessment of EU relations with NGOs in Turkey. Markus Ketola shows convincingly how poorly EU civil society conceptions and funding priorities match with conditions on the ground and how local NGOs negotiate external opportunities and domestic demands.
