    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on the expansion by the Turkish government of religious schools in the country, with critics seeing it as an attempt to roll back the country's 90-year-old secular project. Topics covered include the accusation by secular opponents that Islamist-rooted Justice and Development Party(AKP) and its leader, Recep Tayyip Erdoðan, of trying to turn Turkey into Iran and examples of government initiatives aimed to Islam deeper into Turkey's secular education system.
