Here, a group of experts on Turkish political economy show how these policies have also had a detrimental impact on the environment, sustainability and the long-term health of the Turkish economy. Taking the two main sectors of growth during the past decade-energy and construction-as its primary focus, the book engages broadly with the political economy of inequality and sustainability in contemporary Turkey. Ultimately, the authors argue that 'environmental conflicts' in Turkey are not merely about the environment but intersect with contemporary politics of religion, ethnicity, gender, and class within the context of top-down, modernising economic development. Neoliberal Turkey and its Discontents marks an important contribution to debates around the economic growth of Turkey and the future of the AKP's long-term economic plan."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Library of modern Turkey.Environmental policyTurkeyEconomic historyTurkeyEconomic conditions1960-TurkeyEconomic policyElectronic books.Environmental policy338.9561Adaman FikretAkbulut Bengi1982-Arsel MuratUtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910511693603321Neoliberal Turkey and its discontents2549187UNINA
