Kemalist Turkey and the Middle East

This book, first published in 1932, conducts a thorough survey of the modern state of Turkey as it stood in the period between the wars. The author, an expert on the country, endeavoured to present a critical account of Turkey, and examines nationalism, the politics and economics of the young republic, society, international relations, the role of women and minorities in Turkish society, and the prospects for Turkey's future. It is a key text in the development of Turkey.
