| dc.description.abstract | The chapter provides a historical perspective on the role of civil society and social movements in Turkey. Discussing with the British and American social movement literature it is argued that these do not easily apply to the Turkish case, due to the particularity of the Turkish civil society and political culture. Historically, Turkish movements have not been independent of the state and rarely organised by grass-root movements generally, but rather institutionalised and state-related in their struggle for power. Yet, the recent uprisings in Gezi Park and elsewhere in Istanbul show a new development in the role and potential for social and political change in the Turkish context. © Peter Lang GmbH.
