Growing Together, Growing Apart

Kundeninformationen

Abstract This volume provides an up-to-date overview of relations between the EU and Turkey. Is a Turkish EU membership still a realistic option today? How has this relationship evolved so far, and with which benefits for both sides? What are currently the main challenges for closer relations and deepening cooperation?

In a series of timely contributions exerts explain the core themes in EU-Turkish relations today. The resulting overall picture is one of ambivalence: Turkey and the EU have grown together in important ways, and both sides have benefited from this process. However, the process is neither linear nor irreversible, we find increasing tensions in this relationship, and it appears impossible at this time to predict how EU-Turkish relations will evolve in even the near future.
