Recenzje

'Creating the Desired Citizen is a valuable book for anyone curious about the AKP government. It provides detailed information concerning its social engineering policies. It also highlights the similarities between the Kemalists and the Erdoğanists, which is not much discussed in academia or the media.' Senem Aslan, International Journal of Middle East Studies
