Reviews

“Yesil masterfully shows how Erdogan and the AKP have positioned themselves as a voice of aggrieved Muslims and counterbalance to the harm that Western capitalism, globalization, and interventions have caused. With impressive historical and media analysis and even some ethnography and interviews, she then deconstructs their global media output to reveal how their reductionist and polarizing binary East/West and Us/Them messaging not only undermines Turkey’s own complex in-betweenness but also further empowers hardliners.”--Wazhmah Osman, author of Television and the Afghan Culture Wars: Brought to You by Foreigners, Warlords, and Activists
