Is the Gülen Movement’s innovative potential subversive?

No. The Gülen Movement’s innovative potential is not subversive. Based on Islamic teachings, Fethullah Gülen encourages people to offer services which are not an opposition to interests within a certain moral framework. Services offered do not seek to improve the relative position of the Gülen Movement actor so that the actor will be able to overcome functional obstacles in order to change authority relationships.
