Muslim Societies in the Age of Mass Consumption
In the course of the 20th century, hardly a region in the world has escaped the triumph of global consumerism. Muslim societies are no exception. Globalized brands are pervasive, and the landscapes of consumption are changing at a breathtaking pace. Yet Muslim consumers are not passive victims of the homogenizing forces of globalization. They actively appropriate and adapt the new commodities and spaces of consumption to their own needs and integrate them into their culture. Simultaneously, this culture is reshaped and reinvented to comply with the mechanisms of conspicuous consumption. It is these processes that this volume seeks to address from an interdisciplinary perspective. The papers ...
Denial of Violence
Denial of Violence seeks to decipher the roots of the denial by Turkish and Ottoman officials of acts of violence committed against Armenians. Based on a qualitative analysis of over 300 memoirs published in Turkey from 1789 to 2009, Fatma Müge Göçek analyzes denial as a multilayered process that starts with the advent of systematic modernity in the Ottoman Empire in 1789 and continues to this day in the Turkish Republic.
Turkey’s Public Diplomacy
As a bridge between Europe and Asia, the West and the Middle East, Turkey sees its influence increasing. Its foreign policy is becoming more complex, making sophisticated public diplomacy an essential tool. This volume - the first in English about the subject - examines this rising power's path toward being a more consequential global player.
Perverse Politics?
The papers collected here offer anti-imperialist feminist alternatives to second wave feminism's often reductive understandings of freedom; emancipation; oppression; empowerment and democracy.
Headscarf Politics in Turkey
This book questions the 'role model' status of the Turkish Republic with respect to the advancement of female agency in a secular context by using the study of women with headscarves as a case in point. Turkey's commitment to modernization depends heavily on secularism which involves, among other things, the westernization of women's appearance.
Insight Turkey 2020/03 - Transformation of Turkey's Defense Industry
Turkey’s contemporary defense and military strategy can be best understood as a result of the historical process the country has experienced. This historical process has significantly altered the security environment surrounding Turkey while transforming her alliance relations, ultimately producing a new political vision for the country and a defense and military strategy that serves this vision. Firstly, although the end of the Cold War and the ensuing dissolution of the Soviet Union has ameliorated international security, Turkey was faced with both conventional and asymmetric threats on multiple fronts. This situation kept defense spending of the country at record levels despite military...
DENEME BİR İKİ
Fadime Özkan hem yaşadığı ülke, hem de dünyanın farklı coğrafyalarında yaşananları kendine özgü üslubuyla değerlendiriyor. Medyadan sokaktaki insana, Filistin’den Irak’a, Amerikan yerlilerinden İstanbul’daki seyyar satıcılara bir gazeteci yazarın hayata bakışı. İsyanları intihara yakın, çünkü ‘kendini imha’ iması taşıyor. Yaşadıkları sokakları, kullandıkları arabaları ateşe veriyor bu çocuklar. Başka türlü fark edilmeyen varlıklarını görünür kılmaya çalışıyorlar. İçinden çıkamadıkları çemberi tutuşturarak kendilerine reva görülen hayatın yaşanmaz, bahşedilen yaşam alanlarının çekilmez olduğunu alevden bir çığlıkla duyuruyorlar. Bakın buradayız diyorlar, buradayız ve hiç memnun değiliz.
2007’den 2017’ye Hükümet Sistemi Tartışmaları
6 Nisan 2017 günü yapılan referandumun konusu, sair zamanda yapılan herhangi bir anayasa değişikliğinin değil 2007’de somut olarak ortaya çıkmış bir zaruretin de yerine getirilmesiydi. Zaruret halini hatırlamak için biraz geriye 2007’ye gitmek gerekiyor. Daha önce pek çok kez vesayet kurumları ve odaklarınca siyasi krize dönüştürülen Cumhurbaşkanlığı seçim süreci 2007’de de krize dönüştürülmüş, Türkiye Büyük Millet Meclisi 11. Cumhurbaşkanını seçemez olmuştu. İktidarda olan ve TBMM’de çoğunluğu elinde bulunduran AK Parti’nin vesayetçilerin işaret ettiği değil kendisinin gösterdiği bir adayla seçime gitmesinin önüne geçmek hedefiyle bir dizi hukuk ve siyaset dışı gelişme yaşandı. Elinizdeki kitap, 2007’den 2017’ye kadar geçen sürede Hükümet Sistemi Tartışmaları hakkında yapılan röportajlardan oluşuyor. Konuşturulan kişiler; önerinin sahipleri, tartışmanın aktörleri yahut uzmanları. Röportajlar anlama, vuzuha kavuşturma amacı taşıyor ve içinden geçilen zamanın ruhunu ele veriyor. Gizle
Communication in Peace, Conflict in Communication
Peace and Conflict are commonly understood as polar opposites. In a polarised opposition there is no place for conflict in peace, and peace, the privileged term of the binary opposition, needs to be pure and homogeneous, cleansed of any unlicensed differences and contradictions. Yet, a radically plural and demo-cratic politic must harbour conflicting and antagonistic views of things; opposition is internal to it; and its view of freedom says that "freedom is always the freedom of those who think differently". In contrast, the ideal of a homogeneous, self--same, indivisibly unified society is totalitarian and repressive of the very differenc-es that make a society, any society, possible. The ...
