Description

Turkey's July 15th Coup: What Happened and Why On July 15, 2016, a faction of the Turkish military attempted to overthrow the government. This event has been attributed to the Gülen Movement, an Islamist movement led by Fethullah Gülen that had helped elect the ruling party and its leader, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. The volume focuses on the historical and sociopolitical contexts of the Gülen Movement's origins and political ascendancy, as well as its possible role in the failed coup. Editors M. Hakan Yavuz and Bayram Balci bring together scholars who have researched the movement in Turkey, Central Asia, and the Balkans to provide a comprehensive assessment of the movement's activities and their impact on Turkish politics. The book addresses key questions about the Gülen Movement's transformation into a major force in Turkish politics and its implications for the country's democracy.
