Summary, etc. |
"It was 2016, and Istanbul was a boom town for correspondents reporting on the European refugee crisis, the Syrian civil war, the Kurdish conflict, jihadist terrorism, and Turkey's own controversial president. It was also a boom town for the fixers who assisted those foreign correspondents. The author learned, as a researcher, that there was a semi-formal label for such people and considered for the first time that they were providing a form of labor that merited remuneration. He also learned, when he hired a political science student at one of Istanbul's English language universities from a list, that different fixers are helpful in different ways: recommend sources, translate, provide background information. This work will provide information about them."-- |
