About this book

This study examines the history and politics of Turkey-EU relations since 1959, exploring the complex interaction of geostrategic and normative concerns which have resulted in the current lack of accession progress and Turkey's slide to authoritarianism.

Reviews

“This excellent work on the relationship among Turkey, the West, and the EU is most timely. … she covers a wide range of issues, which helps make sense of current headlines about the EU and Turkey. … The current migrant issue has opened a new chapter in the EU-Turkey drama, and Martin’s work provides analysis for readers to understand the big, the immediate, and the long-term pictures. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.” (H. Steck, Choice, Vol. 53 (9), May, 2016)

“This rich book traces EU-Turkey relations between the two poles of geopolitics and norms. … The methodological choice to apply a qualitative process-tracing approach represents one of the book’s added values. … the author has fully reached her aim to ‘make a case on the balance of probabilities for a given explanation’ … and is very convincing in doing so.” (FundaTekin, Journal of Common Market Studies, Vol. 54 (4), 2016)
