Ekrem Imamoglu, if he wants to be next leader of the country, has to go far beyond the local election coalition of early 2019, and look for a new kind of social contract.
Throughout the early 2019 election process, İmamoğlu pushed the boundaries of the secularist main opposition CHP, marching to the centre via a reconciliatory populism.
Erdoğan is successfully pushing the HDP further to the margins and the HDP seems to be taking the bait doubly pressed upon them by Erdoğan and the PKK.
