Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Turkey's involvement in the Gulf War in 1991 paved the way for the country's acceptance into the European Union. Turkey: Facing a New Millennium, newly available in paperback, traces that process and delves into Turkey's foreign policy in the 1990s. It examines the country's ability to withstand the repercussions of the fall of communism.

The book focuses on Turkey's achievement in minimising the effects of the temporary devaluation in its strategic importance due to the waning of the Cold War and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Additionally, it highlights the skilful way in which Turkey avoided getting embroiled in the ethnic upheavals in Central Asia, the Balkans, and the Middle East, and discusses the development of a policy aimed at closer integration into the European and Western worlds.

Internal politics are the core of the second part of Turkey: Facing a New Millennium, addressing the curbing of the Kurdish revolt, the economic gains made, and the strengthening of civil society. Nachmani goes on to analyse the prospects for Turkey in the twenty-first century, considering the potential integration into Europe, which may allow the country's leadership to effectively address domestic issues.

This book offers essential insights for anyone studying Turkish politics, European politics, or the dynamics of the European Union.
