商品簡介
The 'neoliberal' economic policy of Erdogan's AKP Party, which has delivered extraordinary growth to Turkish GDP over the last decade, has been one of the foundations of the party's popular appeal. Here, a group of influential Turkish economists show how these policies have also had a detrimental impact on the environment, sustainability and the long-term health of the Turkish economy. Analysing and dissecting the relationship between construction, the environment and economic growth under President Erdogan, Neoliberal Turkey and its Discontents will make an important contribution to debates around the economic growth of Turkey and the future of the AKP economic plan.
