All abstracts are going to be selected according to double blind reviews and accepted papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings E-Book with an ISBN number that will be given to you in a DVD box during conference registration.

We invite you to join us at the event in Istanbul and would like to emphasize that proposals from different parts of the world are welcomed.

FRAMEWORK

The main area of focus of the meeting will be contemporary studies and research on the history, culture and language of Turkey and Turkish people, as well as lands they inhabit now and in the past.

Therefore, Turkic studies, as many other branches of humanities and Oriental studies, can be defined as interdisciplinary field of studies. We hope to create an opportunity for participating scholars working on Turkey in different fileds and Turkologists to share their experiences, discuss studies-related problems and issues indirectly related to them that they encounter at work, as well as perspectives of future research.
