By Aydogan Vatandas
For much of the last 13, Turkey rode a wave
of political, social, and economic success. When the AK Party came to power
in 2002, it pursued a progressive and democratic agenda. After the AK Party
secured its third sweeping victory in the 2011 Parliamentary elections, Recep
Tayyip Erdoğan suddenly veered off "the train to democracy" and
began pursuing his personal agenda. The result has been four years of brutal
crackdowns on public demonstrations, the criminalization of the free press
and internet, and the deliberate polarization of society through hate speech
and fear mongering. All sections of society have suffered, but few have
suffered more than Hizmet, a peaceful civic movement that has been the victim
of a massive witch-hunt as the government has sought scapegoats for its
increasingly corrupt behavior. peaceful are not safe. This collection of
articles shed light on Erdoğan’s transition from Muslim democrat to
authoritarian leader, analyzing events as they happened. They present a
variety of perspectives on Turkey’s unique position in the Middle East, its
relationship with the USA, Erdoğan’s extreme reactions to any form of
opposition, and his escalating authoritarianism and witch hunt. |
