This is one of the first academic books about Fethullah Gülen, a Turkish scholar and preacher, and the civic movement he inspired in Turkey and ultimately throughout the world.

Based on interview data and visits to Gülen-inspired institutions, the book describes the movement from a sociological perspective, especially through the lens of social movement theory. It is the first book, grounded in empirical

Ukraine has surprised many international observers. Few anticipated its declaration of independence in 1991 or its determination to move out of Russia’s shadow.
