The Turkish-American Relationship Between 1947 and 2003: The History of a Distinctive Alliance
The author explores U.S.-Turkish foreign policy in order to test questions of big state/small state and patron/client theories of alliances. Although he covers the entirety of the post-World War II period, the heart of the work looks at the period lasting from 1960 to 1975, the time in which those who had staged a military coup ruled Turkey (as well as the period that was the sole focus of the author's PhD dissertation). Turkey's reactions to the Cuban Missile Crisis and failed U.S. efforts to prevent Turkey from invading Cyprus are argued to demonstrate that big states can influence but ultimately not completely control smaller allies.
