What is Beyond Turkey's Borders: Long-Distance Kemalism, State Politics and the Turkish Diaspora (International Library of Ethnicity, Identity and Culture) about?

Instead Of Pointing To A Post-national Era Of Globalised Politics, As One Might Expect, Banu Senay Argues That Expanding Global Channels Of Communication Have Provided States With More Scope To Mobilise Their Nationals Across Borders.
