Millî Görüş

It argues that Turkey can develop with its own human and economic power by protecting its core Islamic values and combating European imperialism.

[4] The term also refers to the "religious vision" of the organization[2] that emphasizes the moral and spiritual strength of Islamic faith (iman) and explains the Muslim world's decline as a result of its ignorance and imitation of Western values.

[7] It spoke only in the most general terms of Islamic moral and religious education but devoted much attention to industrialization, development and economic independence.

[citation needed] It warned against further rapprochement towards Europe, considering the Common Market to be a Zionist and Catholic project for the assimilation and de-Islamization of Turkey and called instead for Pan-Islamism.

"[8] The name of Millî Görüş would remain associated with a religio-political movement and a series of Islamist parties inspired by Erbakan, one succeeding the other as they were banned for violating Turkey’s secularist legislation.
