Eğitimle İmtihan
“Bu kitapta, Amerika’da doktora öğrencisi iken eğitim üzerine yazmaya başladığım 2004 yılından, Star gazetesinde düzenli köşe yazarlığı yapmaya başladığım 2013 yılı Eylül ayına kadar geçen on yıllık bir zaman diliminde çeşitli dergi, websitesi ve gazetelerde yazdığım yazıların çoğunu bir araya getirmeye çalıştım. Bu yazılar, ele aldığı konular itibariyle Türkiye’nin son on yılının bir şahidi ve değerlendirmesi konumundadır. Yazıları, tarihlerini de dikkate alarak okuyan okuyucu, Türkiye’nin eğitim gündemine ilişkin bazı süreklilikler ve farklılıklar görecektir. Bu kitapta ele alınan yükseköğretim reformu ve merkezi sınavların eğitim sisteminde oluşturduğu baskı gibi birçok konu, tam olarak çözüme hâlâ kavuşturulmamıştır. Söz konusu konuların, önümüzdeki zamanlarda da Türkiye gündemini meşgul edeceğini rahatlıkla söyleyebiliriz. Yeni bir Türkiye’nin inşasında pozitif ve kurucu bir rol alması gerektiğini düşündüğüm eğitim sisteminin iyileştirilmesine ilişkin tartışmalara bu yazıların katkı sağlaması dileğiyle...”

The JDP and Making the Post-Kemalist Secularism in Turkey
This book is an analytical study of secularism in contemporary Turkey by tracing its historical trajectory within the context of political transformation in a country that experienced a social and cultural rupture in its formative years. Its principal focus is on the policies and practices of the current ruling party, the Justice and Development Party (JDP), which has influenced the process of change, evolution, and transformation with regard to secularism and state policies toward religion. Following its foundation in 2001, the JDP developed a unique approach to conceptualising the relationship between state and religion. In contrast to other mainstream parties and political positions both in the past and present, it offers an alternative vision and model to that of inherited Kemalist secularism, as formulated by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk (the founder of modern Turkey) and refined by his close associates in the formative period of the Republic. The project draws its findings from in-depth interviews with members of political parties, civil society activists and religious leaders.
