Professor Doğu Ergil, a distinguished political scientist, has completed his two-and-a-half-year study on the volunteers movement inspired by Fethullah Gülen.

Titled “100 Soruda Fethullah Gülen ve Hareketi” (Fethullah Gülen and His Movement in 100 Questions) (Timaş Publishing House), Ergil’s book dissects the movement from a social science perspective and based on the answers Gülen gave.

Fethullah Gülen seeks a Turkish renaissance. ... The Gülen movement is currently Turkey’s most important export asset. ... The key to the success of the Gülen movement is that they believe in their cause.”
