Turkey's growing international profile, candidacy for the European Union, and persistent democracy have led to a growing interest in how that country is governed. This book provides detailed portraits of the seven main political parties by Turkish experts who are close observers of these institutions. In addition to providing an analytical survey of Turkish politics today, this volume also provides a fascinating case study on the problems of developing deep-rooted democracy, conflicts between state interests and interest groups, and the evolution of party systems.
