Pan-Turkism: From Irredentism to Cooperation

di Jacob M. Landau (Autore)

Indiana University Press, 1995

"Landau's book is important in several respects...it provides exhaustive information on almost every pan-Turk publication and all of its authors and publicists. Landau appears to have consulted every conceivable source, including archives and collections...In addition, the book is useful to students of pan-nationalism and nationalism, for Landau also expertly places all his information into a larger theoretical context. This contribution to the literature is invaluable." -Journal of Developing Areas "...a most worthwhile work,...It...deserves to be in all library collections on the Middle East." -Perspectives on Political Science "Landau has provided an up-to-date compendium of facts concerning the history of these nationalist ideas and movements. Students of nationalism in general and the politics of post-Soviet Central Asia and the Turkish Republic in particular will remain greatly indebted to [Landau] for some considerable time." -American Political Science Review An examination of relations between Turks in Turkey and their kin abroad-in Cyprus, the Balkans, and especially in the six ex-Soviet Muslim republics in the Caucasus and Central Asia. This book delineates the special relationship between the new republics and Turkey, which has altered the essence of Pan-Turkism from militant irredentism to practical solidarity in matters political, economic, and cultural.
