Popis: Guida, Michelangelo/0000-0002-2232-073X; Guida, Michelangelo/0000-0002-2232-073X WOS:000436612700007 Turkey's Islamist press has been influenced essentially by three contingencies: partisanship, lack of political autonomy, and lack of economic autonomy. These contingencies are reflected in the opinion pieces of Islamist columnists, five of whom are examined here in detail. To understand how their opinions are shaped this article focuses on their interpretations of two dramatic events: the Gezi Park protests and the December 17-25 corruption scandals, both of which took place in 2013. This analysis provides a granular look at how the different Islamist columnists produced highly contrasting responses to government policies and choices, giving a unique insight on the intellectual dynamics within the Islamist community as the July 15,2016 coup approached.
