Editors Foreword

Not so long ago Turkey was dismissed as the end of Europe, but the country has increasingly become a center for regional affairs. After decades as a bastion against the Soviet Union, it can now deal normally with Eastern European countries and the successor states of the Soviet Union. Some of these Eastern European areas were part of the Ottoman Empire, and several share the same religions and historic roots. Contacts with the Middle East are facilitated by a common religion and mutual economic interests. While restoring these relationships, however, Turkey has never turned away from the West. To the contrary, since the 1950s the country has sought closer economic and political links with and has aspired to membership in the European Union. But to understand modern-day Turkey, it is essential to examine its history, particularly the origins of the Ottoman Empire in the 14th century and the creation of the secular state by Atatrk. This span of seven centuries explains the importance of historical in the books title, since history is an important part of what is taking place in the country today.
