#smrgKİTABEVİ The Role of İntelligence in Counter Terrorism: The PKK Case - 2023
Despite this experience's scope and uniqueness, Türkiye's counter-terrorism efforts are under-researched. Due to Turkish efforts against PKK terrorism in the last four decades, counter - terrorism has become a specific area for securocrats. This situation has driven away scholarly interest in the topic. Another reason was the tactic adopted by PKK militants, which focused on exploiting freedom of speech in academia by using it for mere propaganda. Eventually, Turkish counter - terrorism stayed as an under-researched area.
This book is focusing on to say something on the issue in a scholarly fashion to advance the discussion on the topic. As it is explained; works on the topic are limited in Turkish academia; thus by publishing this study, it is expected to initiate a scholarly debate.
