Identifying grand challenges can foster collaboration and attract funding. So, this “talk” is actually a facilitated discussion of what you, the assembled Turkologists and Turkologically curious, view as the important research questions of our field. Initially, I will whet your appetite by raising a few possibly provocative challenges, questions, and methodological and empirical gaps. Stimulating a lively dialogue has the ultimate aim of jointly identifying some new possible areas of collaboration and new research agendas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
