Thanks so much for your reply. The piece I have sent will be published on the blog of a research institute. Yet, it should be more than -- both in terms of its length and its content -- a blog entry. The paper has already passed from the blind review process. I have received comments from two reviewers. Especially their editing comments - grammar/ sentence structures/word choices -- are not good at best. Mostly I disagree. 

The piece as you would see is a bit polemical. I intended it so. Instead of a scientific -- cold if you will -- language, I wanted to use strong words or verbs. 

The reviewers found the conclusion a bit short. And also they think that I am repeating the main argument of the essay too much. 

My general concern is, on the other hand, if the essay makes sense at all. I try to assess Erdogan's rhetoric from the perspective of political theory. The danger is that the two parts of the essay would stand eclectic without any meaningful link among them. 

Thanks
Best
