CFP/JOURNAL- Turkish Studies

 Turkey is a country whose importance is rapidly growing in 
international affairs. A rapidly developing democratic state with a strong economy,
 complex society, active party system, and powerful armed forces, 
Turkey is playing an increasingly critical role in Europe, the Middle East, and 
the Caucasus. Given Turkey's significance and the great interest in 
studying its history, politics, and foreign policy, Turkish Studies presents a
forum for scholarly discussion on these topics and more.

 Turkish Studies features full-length articles, book reviews, and
discussion roundtables covering:
 - The history of the Turkish republic, from the 1920s to the 
present, including political, social, and intellectual issues and 
developments.
 - Turkish politics, including parties, voting patterns, ideologies,
 biographies, the army and other institutions, as well as the 
political attitudes of different social groups within the country.
 - The composition and policy-making process of Turkish governments,
 including leading figures and movements.
 - Government policies and programs, including economic, religious,
social, and all other issues.
 - Turkish international relations and foreign policy, including the
 policy-making process and Turkish relations with all countries,
 institutions, and movements.
