It takes a systematic approach to the phenomenon and includes analysis of cases from around the world, comparisons with militancy in other religions, and their causes and consequences.The sociological concepts and theories examined in the book include those associated with social closure, social movements, nationalism, risk, fear and 'de-civilising'. These are applied within three main themes; characteristics of militant Islam, multi-layered causes and the consequenc 606 $aTerrorism$xSocial aspects 606 $aIslamic fundamentalism$xSocial aspects 606 $aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009$xSocial aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTerrorism$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aIslamic fundamentalism$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009$xSocial aspects. 676 $a303.625 676 $a303.625088297 700 $aVertigans$b Stephen$0874607 701 $aMarron$b Donncha$0996091 701 $aSutton$b Philip W$0619504 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453108103321 996 $aMilitant Islam$92282736 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03325nam 22005051 450 001 9910795176103321 005 20190626093806.0 010 $a1-350-98528-7 010 $a1-78672-393-X 010 $a1-78673-393-5 024 7 $a10.5040/9781350985285 035 $a(CKB)4340000000267376 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5372223 035 $a(OCoLC)1114400634 035 $a(UtOrBLW)bpp09263462 035 $a(EXLCZ)994340000000267376 100 $a20190708d2018 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAmerica and the making of modern Turkey $escience, culture and political alliances /$fAli Erken 205 $aFirst edition. 210 1$aLondon ;$aNew York :$cBloomsbury Publishing,$d2018. 215 $a1 online resource (viii, 226 pages) 225 1 $aLibrary of modern Turkey ;$v34 300 $aCompliant with Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

It was argued that Turkey needed the technical skills and wealth offered by American education, and so a series of American schools was set up across the country to educate the Turkish youth. Here, Ali Erken, in the first study of its kind, argues that these organizations had a huge impact on political and economic thought in Turkey - acting as a form of 'soft power' for US national interests throughout the 20th Century. Robert College, originally a missionary school founded by US benefactors, has been responsible for educating two Turkish Prime Ministers, writers such as Orhan Pamuk and a huge number of influential economists, politicians and journalists. The end result of these American philanthropic efforts, Erken argues, was a consensus in the 1970s that the country must 'westernize'. This mindset, and the opposition viewpoint it engendered, has come to define political struggle in modern Turkey - torn between a capitalist 'modern' West and an Islamic 'Ottoman' East. The book also reveals how and why the Rockefeller and Ford foundations funneled large amounts of money into Turkey post-1945, and undertook activities in support of 'Western' candidates in Turkey as a bulwark against the Soviet Union. This is an essential contribution to the history of US-Turkish relations, and the influence of the West in Turkish political thought."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aLibrary of modern Turkey ;$v34. 606 $2Middle Eastern history 607 $aTurkey$xForeign relations$zUnited States 607 $aTurkey$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zTurkey 676 $a327.561073 700 $aErken$b Ali$f1983-$01572692 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795176103321 996 $aAmerica and the making of modern Turkey$93847803 997 $aUNINA
