Fuat Keyman Abstract This paper’s general argument is that the Copenhagen political criteria constitute the leverage that is making Turkish modernisation and democratisation more plural, multi-cultural and consolidated. In the first section, a historical overview of modern Turkey is undertaken from the perspective of political modernisation and democratic consolidation in order to assess Turkey’s ability to meet the requirements of the Copenhagen political criteria. The second section evaluates the impact of EU conditionality and the remaining problems and prospects in four major areas – the role of the military, human rights,  protection of minorities and the judicial system. The paper concludes with the assessment that the dynamic process of change underway requires the continuation of efforts by Turkey to fully implement the Copenhagen political criteria and a credible policy of conditionality by the EU that respects the  principle of fairness in relations between the two sides. Senem Ayd ın is a Research Fellow at the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS) and a Ph.D. candidate at the Vrije Universiteit Brussels. E. Fuat Keyman is Professor of International Relations at Koç University and a member of the Coordination Board of EFPF.
