IDENTITY, CONFLICT AND POLITICS
IN TURKEY, IRAN AND PAKISTAN
COMPARATIVE POLITICS
AND INTERNATIONAL STUDIES SERIES
Series editors, Christophe Jaffrelot and Alain Dieckhoff
Series managing editor, Miriam Perier
The series consists of original manuscripts and translations of noteworthy manuscripts and publications in the social sciences emanating from the foremost French researchers.
The focus of the series is the transformation of politics and society by transnational and domestic factorsglobalisation, migration and religion. States are more permeable to external influence than ever before and this phenomenon is accelerating processes of social and political change the world over. In seeking to understand and interpret these transformations, this series gives priority to social trends from below as much as to the interventions of state and non-state actors.
