Federico Donelli has written a fascinating, authoritative exploration of the evolution of Turkish involvement on the African continent. Anchored in a sophisticated neoclassical realist theoretical framework, Turkey in Africa delivers a nuanced, sweeping analysis of Ankara's rapidly growing political, economic and humanitarian interventions in Africa. This is an important contribution to the emerging literature on Turkish foreign policy and on the new terms of engagement for Middle Eastern powers in Africa. * Marc Lynch, Professor of Political Science, The George Washington University, and author of The New Arab Wars: Anarchy and Uprising in the Middle East * Donelli's book will be essential reading for those seeking to understand Turkey's role in Africa, especially in the Horn of Africa, where its influence has increased dramatically in the last decade. Engaging with existing literature and brining years of observations to bear, Donelli also-crucially-analyses the drivers of Turkey's foreign policy and the changes in Africa's place among Ankara's priorities. * Jason Mosley, African Studies Centre, Oxford University, UK *
