Abstract
Book Review: The Dubious Case of a Failed Coup: Militarism, Masculinities, and 15 July in Turkey
Highlights
The volume edited by Feride Cicekoglu and Omer Turan lays the foundation for thecontextualization of masculinities and militarism at a moment of immense social, political, and cultural transformation in Turkey
In order to unpack the complexity and dynamism of masculinities within this context, the volume incorporates a spectrum of studies on football, cinema, video games, literature, psychoanalysis, military veterans, and performance
Gender scholars have hitherto underlined the deep-seated role of hegemonic militarism and nationalism within constructions of masculinities, especially in Turkey where military service is compulsory for male citizens
