The Gulen Movement
ISBN-13: 9783838360089 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 84 str.
This book examines and discusses the strategic manoeuvring of the Gulen Movement, which is an influential religio-social movement in Turkey, in its power struggle with its rival groups and ideologies including the secular elite; through an analysis of internal and external dynamics behind its increasing prominence. The book claims that the Gulen Movement, through its educational activities, creates a reciprocal deal where both parties profit. While the Gulen Movement enlarges its scope, spreads its message and proceeds to "cultivate" its counter-elite, it provides its followers with the ability to climb in the social strata and wholly participate in the society; not only by providing them with the material resources they need, but also rendering them as individuals who are conforming to the contemporary set of values and lifestyles.
