A Critique of the histories of European and Ottoman States: "from modernization revisionism" and "State tradition" towards an alternative reading
Hasdemir, A. Seven; Aytekin, Erden Attila; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2011)

Locating discursive elements in the neo- liberal transfo...
