Episode notes
Followers of the Gülen movement, some 10 million strong and active in 160 countries, remain to this day the target of relentless persecution by the Turkish government of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who was once founder Fethullah Gulen’s political and ideological partner. Turkish affairs watchers Dr David Tittensor and Dr Tezcan Gümüş unpick a complex rise-and-fall story with both deep religious roots and brutal contemporary political realities.
