  • Summary

    This chapter explores the formation of state–religion relations in Turkey and discusses how this relationship framed Turkish state policies toward the Christian minority. It shows how Turkish modernization in the early republican period resulted in a type of secularism that is alien to religious diversity in Turkey. It also discusses the policy outcomes of Turkish secularism for the Christian minority. The chapter also documents the policy shifts that enhanced religious liberties for the Christian minority in the 2000s.
