Islam in Modern Turkey by Kim Shively
This book provides a survey of Islam in Turkey since the founding of the modern republic in 1923. It examines the secularising policies of Turkeys founders and how these policies have shaped the development of religious institutions and social expectations around religious practice up to the present day.
