[Ed.: This month’s From the Field submission is a letter from subscriber Cenk Sener of Turkey. In 2001, reports say, evidence emerged of an upcoming Turkish coup d'état attempt. The newly elected government took little action regarding the plot for over half a decade. Then in 2007 it suddenly launched a massive investigation and began making arrests. Many in Turkey and elsewhere believe the plot to be an invention or an exaggeration by the Turkish government and an excuse to jail dissidents.]

To The Editor,

I’m Cenk Sener, a Turkish expat living in Ukraine, a devoted Elliottician and a subscriber to The Socionomist for some time. First, I want to state that I enjoyed Alan Hall’s recent article about authoritarianism in the April and May issues. It sparked an idea that I want to share with you."
