Erdogan's radicalization of Turkey

Connecting the arguments a couple of feedback loops become obvious - reinforcing feedback loops red, and balancing feedback loops blue. In the case of Turkey their geopolitical position is quite unique and relevant. The factors that describe the rise of populism and radicalization, however, show a rather general pattern that can and could be found elsewhere, as well.

It is interesting what factors seem to be relevant short term and ...

... how this seems to change long term as the negative influences become more negative than the positive factors are positive. In other words the situation has a real potential to become quite severe.

And the same phenomenon for the Turkish people in Turkey, first short term ...

... and then long term. "National pride" for example changes drastically from positive to negative.
