Are they a bridge or an obstacle to Turkey’s EU membership?
Looking at the Turkish population in Germany as a possible bridge or an obstacle to Turkey’s EU-membership is an interesting way to approach to this group. Though it is not a very sensible one –a group cannot be qualified in such a simple way and also all interpretation depends on the point of view on both the group and the individual. It is indispensable to take into consideration the life and the history of the Turks in Germany. But also the relation between German Turks and Germans and the relation between Turkish Turks and German Turks are important factors when it comes to the role that this group of people can play during Turkey’s accession process."
