    RADICAL POLITICS IN MODERN TURKEY
    JACOB M. LANDAU

To be meaningful, the terms ‘Left’, ‘Right’ and ‘Islamist’ have to relate to specific situations, and against a background of freedom of action. In Turkey, therefore, the main field of study should be the years following the 19...

Professor Landau’s study, first published in 1990 as The Politics of Pan-Islam, is the ...

    PARLIAMENTS AND PARTIES IN EGYPT
    JACOB M. LANDAU

The impact of the West was most obvious in the political-constitutional field, with the gradual adoption of Western patterns of government and political life. This book, first published in 1953, is the first work to trace the development of parliame...
