Language: English ISBN: 9781551529219 Winner, 2022 Atomium Comic Strip PrizeA comprehensive graphic biography of Recep Tayyip Erdo€Ùan, the authoritarian president of Turkey.One of the world's most divisive and controversial leaders, Recep Tayyip Erdo€Ùan has ruled over Turkey as either prime minister or president since 2003. This graphic biography sheds light on the origins of Turkey's most powerful man, from his youth as a budding soccer player to his years spent navigating Turkey's political landscape, including the founding of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) in 2001. Author Can DÌ?ndar, a Turkish journalist and contributor to the Washington Post now living in exile in Germany, spent several years researching this book. Situated at the crossroads between Europe and Asia with a population of 84 million, Turkey is a growing economic powerhouse with a geopolitically strategic location. As its leader, the Islamic, conservative Erdo€Ùan has had a polarizing effect on the country's populace; some applaud his economic and political reforms, while others decry his autocratic, iron-fisted rule which has included the jailing of opponents, the crushing of free speech and the rights of LGBTQ+ people and others, and an ongoing war waged against the country's Kurdish minority.Featuring compelling illustrations by Egyptian-Sudanese comic artist Anwar, the book provides a critical and dramatic context for understanding Erdo€Ùan's convictions and contradictions as a demagogue for whom democracy has been merely a means to power.
