The book analyzes Turkey-EU relations in the light of Europeanization, Populism and Differentiated Integration. It examines how populist rhetoric shapes politics and public opinion and argues that one should refrain from characterizing Turkey-EU relations as a strategic partnership since that holds the risk to overshadow democratic norms and values

Attempts to answer two main questions: 'Is there a gap between EU and Turkish security cultures?' and 'To what extent is Turkey an advantage for Europe?'. This book examines Turkey's crucial role with NATO and details its relations and priorities in the Mediterranean, the Middle East and the Black Sea regions, comparing these with EU relations.
