Opinion document: The Turkish Hizmet movement

The democratic protests started on the Turkish streets during last June of 2013 seem to be originated in several factors. One of the main causes is the Prime Minister Erdogan himself. His personality is a key to understand the nowadays Turkey. A hypothetical open autocratic regime could stand in the future Turkey if the past attitudes by the AKP party are not corrected. The Hizmet movement, inspired by the figure of the Islamist thinker Fetullah Gülen, offers positive traits to counterbalance wounds in Turkish society, now polarized. The proposals for dialogue and ideas of the Turkish Hizmet movement deserve to be heard.
