- Double-weighted statement
- Based on more than ten years of research (conducted in Turkey, UK and USA) and writing, this monograph demonstrates that creative and destructive forces were inextricably intertwined during Turkey’s transition from a multi-ethnic multi-faith empire to a unitary republic nation-state formation is an inherently spatial process unfolding simultaneously at multiple interdependent scales. Constructing and adequately evidencing this multilayered argument in articles or book chapters is impossible. Therefore, Kezer has opted for a book comprising six chapters revealing the contentious nature of this transformation, which has been favourably reviewed in ten international journals.
