Insight Turkey, a quarterly journal published by SETA Foundation for Political, Economic and Social Research, has published an issue with several articles dealing with Muslim minorities in Europe. The current issue, having a subtitle "European Encounters with Turkish Islam," intends to "present original thinking by knowledgeable observers both from Turkey and abroad and provide a forum for informed discussion on Turkish politics and foreign policy."

Although negative reactions accompanied the reception of Darwinism in the Islamic World from the beginning, a full fledged Islamic creationist movement did not appear before the 1970s. From the late 1990s onwards the subject became popular among Muslims in the diaspora. This was due to the efforts of Adnan Oktar alias Harun Yahya, a hitherto marginal figure in Turkey, to propagate his ideas via the Internet. The Internet allows him to adapt his propaganda constantly to new issues and creationist and anti-creationist publications and to recruit volunteers willing to translate his books. Thanks to the combination of a neglected subject with the innovative use of new media Oktar gained the opinion leadership in this field.
