Content:
Since the end of the Cold War, and perhaps even the early days of the Turkish Republic, there have rarely been so many open questions regarding Turkey?s role in the world. What is Turkey?s place in Eu-rope, NATO, and the E.U.? What risks and opportunities exist for Turkey in a conflict-ridden Middle East? How will Ankara deal with a changing Russia, an un-stable Caucasus, and Central Asia? Can Turkey?s competitive relationship with Greece be moderated against a back-ground of successive Balkan crises?
