    Early preferences of national political parties in the EU for Turkey's accession
    in Southeast European and Black Sea Studies , vol. 10, n. 4, December ,  2010 ,  385-409
    This paper addresses the issue of early preferences of national political parties in the EU regarding Turkey's accession. Two main hypotheses are proposed. First, national moderate parties contribute mainly to the de facto transformation of the accession in an 'open' process by developing volatile attitudes. Second, in the case of moderate parties, volatile attitudes and concrete political discourses on Turkey's accession are mainly determined by explanatory factors other than ideology (structural and strategic factors).
