Omschrijving

A History of Turkish Scholarship: Modernization, Nationalism and the State traces the evolution of Turkey's academic institutions from their late Ottoman roots to the present, revealing how universities became key arenas in the struggle over national identity, progress, and state power.

Focusing on the humanities and social sciences, this book examines how Turkish scholarship emerged and matured under the weight of modernization drives, nationalist ideals, and shifting state ideologies. It explores how three generations of scholars navigated institutional pressures and ideological fault lines as they contributed to - and were shaped by - the construction of modern Turkey's historical and intellectual narrative. Rather than simply chronicling higher education reform, the book uncovers the deeper cultural and political forces that continuously reshaped the academic world: from the early Republican push for enlightenment and secularism to periods of centralization, censorship, and contested autonomy.

Rich in insight and grounded in archival research, this book will appeal to scholars and students of Middle Eastern studies, intellectual history, political science, and education, as well as anyone interested in the dynamic interplay between knowledge, power, and the state in modern societies.
