Nostalgia for the modern : state secularism and everyday politics in Turkey

An anthropological account of how Turkey, a predominantly Muslim state, has come to embrace republicanism in a way that, as in the United States, it has suffused private domestic life. This work analyzes the ways that Turkish citizens began to express an attachment to the secularist, modernist, and nationalist foundations of the Turkish Republic
