Beskrivning
Turkish nationalism erupted onto the world stage in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as first Greeks, then Armenians and other minority groups within the Ottoman Empire began to assert national identity and seek independence. Umut Uzer examines the ideological evolution and transformation of Turkish nationalism from its early precursors to its contemporary protagonists. Through a textual analysis of nationalist writings, this volume considers how political developments influenced Turkish nationalism. It tackles the question of how an ideology that began as a revolutionary, progressive, forward-looking ideal eventually transformed into one that is conservative, patriarchal, and nostalgic to the Ottoman and Islamic past. Between Islamic and Turkish Identity is the first book in any language to comprehensively analyze Turkish nationalism with such scope and engagement with primary sources, dissecting the phenomenon in all its manifestations.

Recensioner i media

“Surveys some of the major ideas of Turkish nationalism as it traces the development and transformation of this idea in its various forms. Nothing of the sort exists in English that is not outdated or that offers similar coverage.” —Yücel Yan?kda?, author of Healing the Nation: Prisoners of War, Medicine, and Nationalism in Turkey, 1914–1939“The book is useful for students of Turkish nationalism and can be used for undergraduate classrooms or as a reference book for the genealogy of Turkish nationalist thought. Currently, such information can only be obtained by sifting through several outdated books.”—Hakan Özo?lu, director of Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Central Florida
