This paper examines the domestic and foreign policy problems now bedeviling Turkey. It specifically looks at 1) the Justice and Development Party's (AKP) rise to dominance; 2) the party's success in the November 2015 general elections; 3) the current state of democracy in Turkey; 4) the role of Turkey in the ongoing regional refugee crisis, to include its fight against Kurdish groups and its murky relationship with the so-called Islamic State; 5) the still simmering tensions between Moscow and Ankara; and 6) the state of Turkey-EU relations.
