More about the book
The analysis delves into the rise and fall of the "Turkish Model" under Recep Tayyip Erdogan, exploring its initial promise of integrating Islam with democracy and economics. Cihan Tugal critiques the inherent flaws in this Islamic liberalism, linking its failures to broader regional dynamics, particularly in contrast to the "Iranian Model." The book examines the impact of these models on countries like Egypt and Tunisia, once viewed as potential adopters of the Turkish approach, providing a comprehensive look at the challenges faced by Islamist movements and regimes in the region.
