Ilbiz and Kaunert, however, adopt a holistic approach to how the paradigm shifts in Turkish counter-terrorism policies that occurred during these periods to point out their basis in different domestic and EU-level factors and conclude with a remarkable articulation in contrast to the argument within the literature regarding the EU diffusing its norms for “altruistic” reasons. They argue that the EU is a rational actor only concerned with self-interest.https://www.insightturkey.com/author/assalakhettache-101/eu-turkey-and-counter-terrorism-fighting-the-pkk-and-isishttps://www.insightturkey.com/author/assalakhettache-101/eu-turkey-and-counter-terrorism-fighting-the-pkk-and-isisTue, 27 Dec 2022 14:04:00 GMT
