Mid-term exam for the Modern Turkish Politics course.
March 5th, 2015
Please answer two of the below questions. The whole mid-term has %30 weight on your overall mark and each question will be %15.
Please limit your answers maximum with 5 pages in total for both questions. Due date for the exam is March 14, midnight. For every hour of late submission you will lose half a point. If you experience difficulty in submitting via Canvas send me an email attached to which you send your answers.
Please answer the question rather than writing everything you might know. Also, please take a minute to make an outline for your essay, to structure the information and your thoughts. You are not only expected to show that you mastered the factual data but also to present it in a structured way. I do not expect you to give reference when mentioning commonsensical information, (for instance Turkish republic was founded in 1923), but I expect you to give reference if/when you are mentioning a specific argument of a specific person we read.
Q4-What were the major political and economic problems leading to the 1980 military coup d’état?
(answer is in first 2 attachments- Ahmad Ch 5 and Ahmad Ch 6
Q5– Describe the political environment and factors that contributed to the rise of political Islam in Turkey.
(answer is in the last 2 attachments)
