Departing from traditional macro-level analyses, the book offers a new sociological approach to the study of political parties, treating them as non-unitary entities composed of many different groups and individuals who both cooperate and compete with one another. The central proposition of the book is that parties must be studied as clusters of relationships in specific locales rather than as unitary 'black boxes.' This ground-up approach provides new insights into the internal workings of political parties; why parties gain and lose elections and other political resources; and the ways in which power is negotiated and exercised in Turkey and beyond. Chapters include studies of Islamic and Islamist parties from the 1970s to the present, ethnic Kurdish parties, center- and extreme right parties, and the far left, as well as independent candidates. The authors pay particular attention to relations - and the blurry boundaries-- between parties and civil society groups, religious associations, non-governmental organizations, ethnic and socio-economic groups, and state institutions, and to the variability of external and internal party politics in different geographies such as Adana, Mersin, and Diyarbakir"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge Studies in Middle Eastern Politics 606 $aPolitical parties$zTurkey 606 $aPolitical parties$xSocial aspects$zTurkey 606 $aPolitical parties$zTurkey$xCommunications 606 $aCommunication in politics$xSocial aspects$zTurkey 606 $aPolitical parties$xManagement$xSocial aspects$zTurkey 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPolitical parties 615 0$aPolitical parties$xSocial aspects 615 0$aPolitical parties$xCommunications. 615 0$aCommunication in politics$xSocial aspects 615 0$aPolitical parties$xManagement$xSocial aspects 676 $a324.2561 701 $aMassicard$b Elise$0688275 701 $aWatts$b Nicole$0925036 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452536003321 996 $aNegotiating political power in Turkey$92076190 997 $aUNINA
