Exploring Emotions in Turkey-Iran Relations

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the emotional and affective dimensions of Turkey-Iran relations, the book presents a framework that integrates concepts of emotionality, affectivity, normativity, and relationality. It examines historical dynamics from the end of World War I to the re-imposition of US sanctions on Iran, highlighting the interplay of global and regional factors. The analysis reveals a century-long narrative shaped by contrasting emotions, illustrated by the sectarian tensions stemming from the 1514 Çaldiran war and the collaborative spirit of the 1639 Kasr-i Sirin peace agreement.
