About this blog
Welcome to the TurkEU blog,
This blog is dedicated to disseminating information, commentary, and analysis about Turkey's bid for accession to the European Union. I will try to post regularly both links to articles and other materials on the web on this topic, as well as my own reflections.
The posts will likely betray my own interests in the long history behind current events, as well as items such as the resurgence of Islamophobia and xenophobia in much of Europe that I believe are closely related to the issue of Turkey's EU bid.
Please feel free to leave your comments and thoughts, and enjoy your stay.
