Turkey: A Country Study by Federal Research Division is a comprehensive guide to the history, culture, politics, economy, and society of Turkey. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the geography and climate of the country, its history from ancient times to the present day, the political system and government, the economy and industry, the social and cultural life of the people, and the country's relations with its neighbors and the wider world.The book is organized into chapters that cover each of these topics in detail, with extensive background information, analysis, and data. The authors provide a balanced and objective view of the country, drawing on a wide range of sources and perspectives to present a clear and informative picture of Turkey.Throughout the book, the authors explore the many factors that have shaped Turkey over the centuries, from its strategic location at the crossroads of Europe and Asia to its complex cultural and religious heritage. They also examine the challenges facing the country today, including economic and political reform, social change, and the ongoing conflict with Kurdish separatists.Overall, Turkey: A Country Study is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand this fascinating and complex country, whether they are students, scholars, policymakers, or simply curious readers.Domestic industries also lost ground in export markets because of increases in the cost of raw materials and energy. Turkey's trade deficit reached US$4 billion in 1977, contributing to a balance of payments deficit nearly five times the 1974 level. Becoming skeptical of Turkey's ability to repay existing debts, a number of foreign creditors refused to extend further loans. As a result, the country virtually ran out of foreign exchange to meet its immediate commitments and was faced with national bankruptcy, which was averted only when the Central Bank intervened by suspending payments for many imports and, in effect, forced credit from foreign exporters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
