A Paradigmatic Shift for the Turkish Generals.., Aydinli (2009)

(585): The popular coup? "Society" supports its Army [Overstated, of coruse--but certainly greater legitimacy has something to do with its ability to relinquish power more quickly than in Pakistan. Something like, 'better institutionalized']

(587): Two groups in military: Bukukenit (conservative bloc), and Ozkok (progressive bloc)

(593): 'soft power' now, 'hard power' before [same idea as 'support from society']
