Synopsis

This book examines the history of various public works projects in Eastern Turkey, a region lacking in roads, railways, canals, and irrigation projects. The author analyzes the reasons for this lack of infrastructure development, tracing it back to the Ottoman Empire's decline and the subsequent political and economic instability in the region. The book also discusses the role of foreign powers in the development of public works in Eastern Turkey, highlighting the challenges and opportunities presented by this involvement. The author argues that the lack of infrastructure in Eastern Turkey has had a negative impact on the region's economic and social development, and calls for increased investment in public works projects to improve the lives of the people living there.
