Presentation of the book by the author Nora Fisher Onar, associate professor, (University of San Francisco), Contesting Pluralism(s): Islam, Liberalism and Nationalism in Turkey, Cambridge University Press.

As the liberal international order weakens, anti-pluralist leaders and movements seek to capture states & societies. At the same time, more (and less) vigorous coalitions for open societies are challenging the global anti-pluralist turn. This pattern involves multiple actors, norms, pressures and processes which can and should be compared to better understand this acute global challenge.
Nora Fisher-Onar's new book Contesting Pluralism(s)... does so via an original framework that puts complexity thinking into conversation with international relations and comparative politics / area studies. The product is a dramatic re-reading of a pivotal country's political history and present, offering a timely toolkit and fresh insights into the intersection of political religion, populism and democracy everywhere.
