While there has been a huge expansion of the literature on Turkish political economy and foreign policy, fewer studies have explored Turkeys engagement with the changing global political economy since 2008 and the decline of the US-led liberal international order. This book goes beyond the embedded methodological nationalism of geopolitics to explore Turkeys place within global political economy perspectives. Drawing upon various critical approaches and exploring Turkeys economic and political relations with diverse regions and countries, ranging from Latin America to sub-Saharan Africa, and post-Brexit Britain to Iran, the book offers a multilateral perspective which transcends state-centrism and the understanding of economic relations as isolated from political relations.
