DOCUMENTARY BOOK PUBLISHED TOGETHER WITH JOURNALIST BITTE HAMMARGREN
DRAMA WITHOUT END - TURKEY 100 YEARS
Turkiet 100 år - Drama utan slut
Out of war, blood and ashes, the Turkish Republic was born a hundred years ago. It created a drama that will continue long after the Republic's 100th birthday in October 2023. With this reportage and photo book, journalist Bitte Hammargren and photographer Stefan Bladh want to depict some of the decisive events and changes that contributed to the Turkey we see today. It is about Atatürk's creation of the Republic of Turkey, the situation of the Kurds and other ethnic minorities, how the Syrian war has changed Turkey and how its foreign and security policy affects both the country's own inhabitants and the outside world. Not least, this highly topical book describes Erdoğan's journey to power, and how he changed the republic during his time as prime minister and president - as well as the political aftershocks that await a severely tested and polarized country after the devastating earthquakes in early 2023.
