Using the institutional channelling theory, this study claims that Euro-Turks are more likely to comply with the political, economic, legal and cultural structure of their countries of settlement. The study also claims that Euro-Turks have recently become actively engaged in political participation processes at a time defined by rising Islamophobia. However, official lobbying activities of the Turkish state among Euro-Turks are likely to be more destructive than constructive in the way in which they make the Euro-Turks compete with each other on ideological grounds.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEuro-TurksPolitical ParticipationTransnational SpaceHyphenated IdentitiesCitizenshipEuropean UnionArticle2-s2.0-8486040310110.1080/13608746.2011.5983665123Q149916Q4WOS:000298364300010
