Rezensionen

"Relying on a variety of evidence gathered through field research in Turkey, Leila Piran weaves a compelling narrative about the Turkish National Police and the domestic and international political forces which lead to change and continuity in this understudied institution. Her work will be of great value to scholars and policymakers interested not only in Turkish national politics and its relationship to the European Union, but to anyone interested in exploring issues at the intersection of security and democracy." - Andrew Yeo, Catholic University of America
