Eurasian Politics and Society
Eurasian Politics and Society: Issues and Challenges studies the various outcomes of regional transformation, the ideology of Turkish Eurasianism, and the Eurasian Economic Union. In doing so, it looks at the power struggle in the South Caucasus, Kazakhstan’s relations with Russia, Russia’s sense of Eurasianism, and geopolitical awareness as a pattern of imperial self-perception for Putin’s Russia. The book also provides a detailed analysis of the situation in Syria from a humanitarian perspective, and utilizes an innovative approach in exploring how the European Neighbourhood Policy resonates in Neo/Functionalism. As such, this volume represents a valuable resource for graduate and undergraduate students, academics and researchers in the areas of security, political economy, European studies, post-Soviet studies, and Eurasian studies.
Nightingales and Pleasure Gardens
The earliest turkish verses, dating from the sixth century A.D., were love lyrics. Since then, love has dominated the Turks’ poetic modes and moods—pre-Islamic, Ottoman, classical, folk, modern. This collection covers love lyrics from all periods of Turkish poetry. It is the first anthology of its kind in English. The translations, faithful to the originals, possess a special freshness in style and sensibility. Here are lyrics from pre-Islamic Central Asia, passages from epics, mystical ecstasies of such eminent thirteenth-century figures as Rumi and Yunus Emre, classical poems of the Ottoman Empire (including Süleyman the Magnificent and women court poets), lilting folk poems, and the ...

In addition, the book investigates how some of these issues are realized in the diaspora at both the micro and macro levels.
Religion, Identity and Politics
German–Turkish relations, which have a long history and generally unrecognized depth, have rarely been examined as mutually formative processes. Isolated instances of influence have been examined in detail, but the historical and still ongoing processes of mutual interaction have rarely been seriously considered. The ruling assumption has been that Germany may have an impact on Turkey, but not the other way around. Religion, Identity and Politics examines this mutual interaction, specifically with regard to religious identities and institutions. It opposes the commonly held assumption that Europe is the abode of secularism and enlightenment, while the lands of Islam are the realm of backwa...

The only thing I disliked about him was his moustache. His bell-bottomed trousers were seen under the table. If we ignored the moustache, he would even be said to be handsome. Of course, he could shave it. I think I know people well. His looks, gestures, outfits, inner worlds and the way they have been brought up tell on.

Handbook of Research on Consumption, Media, and Popular Culture in the Global Age
The mass production and diversification of media have accelerated the development of popular culture. This has started a new trend in consumerism of desiring new consumption objects and devaluing those consumption objects once acquired, thus creating a constant demand for new items. Pop culture now canalizes consumerism both with advertising and the marketing of consumerist lifestyles, which are disseminated in the mass media. The Handbook of Research on Consumption, Media, and Popular Culture in the Global Age discusses interdisciplinary perspectives on media influence and consumer impacts in a globalizing world due to modern communication technology. Featuring research on topics such as consumer culture, communication ethics, and social media, this book is ideally designed for managers, marketers, researchers, academicians, and students.
They Are Committing Murder In Front Of Our Eyes
Dear readers! First of all, you are safe on my pages. You can cry. My poems will not laugh at you. As they say, "Pain that does not kill strengthens." It's so cliché, but it's so true. If it hurts you. If you are drowning on the dark nights and no one can hear you, remember that, that darkness is your Sun, your tears, your water and your land. You are not dying, you are growing. We will not be able to undo the traumas they have caused us. Let's face it. But the steering wheel of this life is in our hands. First we will cry, scream, and then we will get up. Stronger than before. Yes, tired, but stronger. We will learn to love and not to love. We will learn to say no. To say stop. Not to run. We will learn to breathe. My heart will touch your heart in these pages. You will remember different memories, I will have written different memories. But we will suffer the same. We'll feel the same. Your tears will be touch my tears. We will smile in the same place, hope will bloom in us in the same place. I will have translated your feelings, you will not feel lonely.
