Drawing on interviews with civil society organizations and in conjunction with an examination of EU Civil Society Policy and the legal and institutional environment in Turkey, this book questions the impact that these policies have had on Turkish civil society suggesting that it is, at best, limited. Instead this book argues that the EU could not accomplish its expected objectives within the framework of its civil society policy in Turkey due to a universalist understanding that ignores the current domestic structure of Turkish civil society as well as disregarding its political nature and the autonomous character of Turkey's civil society actors. The result is one of the most wide-ranging and in-depth studies on Turkish civil society and European Union, as such it is an important text for students and scholars of EU enlargement and civil society"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Civil society $z Turkey. 650 0 $a Political participation $z Turkey. 650 0 $a Civil society $z European Union countries. 610 20 $a European Union $z Turkey $x Membership. 650 0 $a Legitimacy of governments $z Turkey. 651 0 $a European Union countries $x Foreign relations $z Turkey. 651 0 $a Turkey $x Foreign relations $z European Union countries. 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Affairs & Administration. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Government / National. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Globalization. $2 bisacsh 830 0 $a Palgrave studies in European Union politics. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211030303.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D13A09D4776911E3809E827FDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
