The “Arab Spring effect” was the change in international circumstances which reminded the EU that it could not allow the Turkish case for accession to fester in the post-2005 doldrums forever. It explains why the EU has persevered with the Turkish case since 2010/2011 in spite of a lack of real reform in Turkey and the deteriorating state of its democracy. This continues the overarching theory of the Turkey-EU accession process that geostrategy has played a major part in maintaining Turkey’s place within the accession process, although real progress has only been made when there was evidence of meaningful constitutional reform.
