Turkey under the leadership of Kemal Ataturk had thrown her lot wholly on the side of Westernization. The manifestations and consequences of this decision will occupy our full attention from this point on, for the transformed Turkish nation had opened herself to a host of new influences which could not help affecting every phase of her existence. To the outside world there was probably no change so far reaching in its effect on international relations as Turkey's complete allegiance to the Western doctrine of nationalism. In the present chapter we shall notice how Turkey's status as leader of Islam was affected, and in the chapter which follows we shall see how nationalism altered the entire structure of Turkey's internal social life.
