B. Senem Cevik & Philip Seib 
Turkey’s Public Diplomacy 

As a bridge between Europe and Asia, the West and the Middle East, Turkey sees its influence increasing. Its foreign policy is becoming more complex, making sophisticated public diplomacy an essential tool. This volume – the first in English about the subject – examines this rising power’s path toward being a more consequential global player.
