ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts discussed in this book. The book analyzes the impact of the European Union (EU) accession process on the main areas of Turkish public policy. It deals with observations about Turkey's Europeanization process. Balkir utilizes the unfolding constellations of Turkish domestic interests as the primary internal factor in explaining the steps on trade policy. Zeynep Arkan and Isik Gurleyen emphasizes the importance of financial mechanisms and projects as key catalysts for educational policy reforms and they labels the Europeanization outcome in the policy field of education as accommodation. Bianca Kaiser and Ibrahim Kaya describes the eventual Europeanization of Turkish migration and asylum policy as an outcome of a dialogical process between Turkish and European stakeholders ranging from relevant ministerial bodies to NGOs. Jorgensen rightly concludes that 'the processes of Europeanization are bound to produce differential political empowerment of competing domestic actors'.
