2023Best.-Nr. B2308262Aktif Yayinevi 2023. New. n/a n/a Türkiye has a long history of combatting terrorism. Through these terrorist acts Türkiye has gone through a lot of tragedy. Moreover all of these attacks were committed by a transnational network; thus making Türkiyes counter-terrorism experience unique. Despite this experience's scope and uniqueness Türkiyes counter-terrorism efforts are under-researched. Due to Turkish efforts against PKK terrorism in the last four decades counter-terrorism has become a specific area for securocrats. This situation has driven away scholarly interest in the topic. Another reason was the tactic adopted by PKK militants which focused on exploiting freedom of speech in academia by using it for mere propaganda. Eventually Turkish counter-terrorism stayed as an under-researched area. This book is focusing on to say something on the issue in a scholarly fashion to advance the discussion on the topic. As it is explained; works on the topic are limited in Turkish academia; thus by publishing this study it is expected to initiate a scholarly debate. Aktif Yayinevi unknown
