The Central Asian Response to Models -- Chapter 6. The Turkish Model at Crossroads: A Conclusion -- Bibliography.The volume discusses what the Turkish Model, or Turkish Development Alternative, was and why it was promoted in the Central Asian republics immediately following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. It argues that the Turkish Model was a myth that transferred the ideal of a ''secular, democratic, liberal society'' as a model for the post Soviet Turkic world and in the process encouraged a ''Turkic" rhetoric that emphasized connection between the two regions based on a common ancestry. The volume begins with an understanding of the reality of the Model from a Turkish perspective and then goes on to examine whether the Turkic world as a "cultural-civilizational alternative" makes sense both from a historical as well as contemporary perspective. It concludes by looking at the re-emergence of the Model in the wake of the events in West Asia in early 2011 and examines how in the light of a search for options the Turkish Model is once again projected as viable.  .International relationsEuropean Economic Community literaturePolitical philosophyInternational Relationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912000European Integrationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W33010Political Philosophyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E37000TurkeyHistory1960-TurkeySocial conditions1960-International relations.European Economic Community literature.Political philosophy.International Relations.European Integration.Political Philosophy.956.104Sengupta Anitaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1058196BOOK9910483845403321Myth and Rhetoric of the Turkish Model2850013UNINA
