This book brings together various analyses that portray how various social movements are changing the citizenship regime in Turkey. This is a change that is transforming the state-society relations that are critical in the achievement of societal peace. The analyses included in this book describe how the issues pertaining to Kurds, Alevis, Romanis, women, LGBT groups, economically poor people, the youth, environmentally conscious, and Afro-Turkish community are bringing about denationalization of citizenship in the Turkish context. While the existing analyses focus on how the European Union accession processes have been triggering such a transformation, this book is distinguished by virtue of shedding light onto the transformative impact of such social movements.
