Security and the Turkey-EU Accession Process

Dr Natalie Martin is a Lecturer in Politics and International Relations at Nottingham Trent University and a Visiting Fellow at Loughborough University. A former journalist, her research interests include the Turkey-EU accession process and the theoretical questions it raises.

"This excellent work on the relationship among Turkey, the West, and the EU is most timely. ... she covers a wide range of issues, which helps make sense of current headlines about the EU and Turkey. ... The current migrant issue has opened a new chapter in the EU-Turkey drama, and Martin's work provides analysis for readers to understand the big, the immediate, and the long-term pictures. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above." (H. Steck, Choice, Vol. 53 (9), May, 2016) "This rich book traces EU-Turkey relations between the two poles of geopolitics and norms. ... The methodological choice to apply a qualitative process-tracing approach represents one of the book's added values. ... the author has fully reached her aim to 'make a case on the balance of probabilities for a given explanation' ... and is very convincing in doing so."
