"The Turkish accession process to the EU is very much in doubt because of European concerns about Turkish identity and the volatility of the Turkish political system. Jung and Raudvere s book is one of the most serious attempts at understanding the multi-faceted conundrum that Turkey s accession process represents. The authors of this edited book tackle the issue from many different angles and approaches and in the process produce a readable, illuminating and critical volume. It is for everyone who wants to better comprehend these issues that are likely to remain unresolved for a while." - Henri Barkey, Bernard L. and Bertha F. Cohen Professor, Chair of the department of International Relations, Lehigh University
"This is an important collection of essays which highlight the complex role of religion and culture in EU-Turkey relations. I would recommend it to scholars and students who are interested not only in EU-Turkey relations but also in broader debates concerning European identity and the future course of the Europeanization project." - Ziya Onis, Department of International Relations, Koc University, Istanbul, Turkey
