Turkey

This book examines Turkey's position in the world at the end of the Cold War. An account of Turkey's political history, society, and economy helps determine what degree of credence to attach to the claim that Turkey is an island of stability in a troubled area extending from the borders of the European Union to China. The author describes Turkey's foreign relations with the West, in general, and the European Union, in particular, and also with its Middle Eastern neighbors, Greece and the ex-communist countries, including the Turkic republics of the former Soviet Union. The emphasis is on Turkey's ability to support Western efforts to bring political stability to the region and to enter into partnership with Western economic enterprise.

המשפט הראשון: The republic of Turkey is the central successor state of the multinational, or rather multiconfessional, Ottoman Empire, which, at the time of its maximum expansion in the sixteenth century, stretched from the gates of Vienna to the India Ocean and from the steppes of southern Russia to the Sahara desert.
