Book Description:
|
Ethnicity, language, and religion are significant aspects of contemporary social identities in Turkey's little-known eastern Black Sea coast. Based on fieldwork carried out between 1983 and 1999, the authors analyze recent economic and political developments in the region in the context of more general changes in Turkish civil society and widespread doubt about the continued viability of the secular institutions of Atat¸rk's republic.
