With a qualitative analysis of the perceptions of transnational second-generation Turks towards the political opportunity structures in Germany and the Netherlands, it seeks an answer to the question ‘How do political opportunity structures in the receiving country shape political transnationalism among Turkish migrants in Western Europe?’ It suggests a causal explanation for the impact of political opportunity structures on political transnationalism through a model called ‘constrained opportunities’. The empirical results reveal ‘constraints’ on political opportunity structures that lead to deficient immigrant political incorporation in the country of residence and reinforce political attachment with the country of origin. About the Author Efe C. Özek is a doctoral researcher at the Department of Comparative Political Economy at Europa-Universität Flensburg (EUF). He is currently engaged in research projects that deal with immigrant political incorporation, political transnationalism, and authoritarian capitalism.PPN: PPN: 1918983313Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SZR | ZDB-2-SNO
