Description: "The authors of these essays probe the growth and complexity of the U.S.-Turkey relationship and analyze the nature of Turkey's major internal problems - the Kurdish issue, the rise of Islam, and the role of the military in political life - and their impact on U.S. policy. They also discuss specific old and new foreign policy issues that are likely to dominate the next decade of relations between the two countries and consider how some of the problems likely to emerge can be handled."--BOOK JACKET.
