This comprehensive volume delves into the multifaceted landscape of religion in Turkey, examining its historical evolution, contemporary manifestations, and the complex interplay between religion, politics, and society. The handbook brings together contributions from leading scholars, offering diverse perspectives on topics such as secularism, religious movements, minority religions, and the role of religion in public life. By providing an in-depth analysis of Turkey’s religious dynamics, this work serves as an essential resource for understanding the country’s unique position at the crossroads of East and West, tradition and modernity.
