Turkey has a unique experience of the problems of political violence and terrorism. Its lessons may be applicable elsewhere

This collection of papers draws together some of the latest thinking about ways in which Turkey can and should co-operate with its international partners in tackling terrorism.

Drawn from a conference held at the Royal United Services Institute in March 2009, it explores a wide range of topics, ranging from the ways in which Turkey is seeking to secure its energy infrastructure, through to the ways in which it has built a co-operative relationship with neighbours who once supported terrorist activities in Turkey.

The conference discussions were based at the time on the UK’s long-term CONTEST strategy and its four main pillars: PREPARE, PURSUE, PREVENT and PROTECT as they applied to Turkey, bringing experts together to explore the issues and ways of tackling them.
