Madam Atatürk
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is hailed as one of the most charismatic political leaders of the twentieth century, but little is known today about his one and only wife, Latife Hanim. A multilingual intellectual educated at the Sorbonne, Latife's marriage to Atatürk in 1923 set her apart from her contemporaries, raising her to the pinnacle of political power. She played a central role in the creation of a modern and secular Turkey and campaigned tirelessly for women's right to vote. Throughout her marriage, Latife stood beside her husband and acted as his interpreter, promoter and diplomatic aide. She even twice risked her own life to save his. However, after only two years of marriage, Atatürk d...
Feminist Practices
Women continue to be extremely under-represented in the architectural profession. Despite equal numbers of male and female students entering architectural studies, there is at least 17-25% attrition of female students and not all remaining become practicing architects. In both the academic and the professional fields of architecture, positions of power and authority are almost entirely male, and as such, the profession is defined by a heterosexual, Eurasian male perspective. This book argues that it is vital for all architectural students and practitioners to be exposed to a diversity of contemporary architectural practices, as this might provide a first step into broadening awareness and tr...

The Limits of Westernization
In a 2001 poll, Turks ranked the United States highest when asked: "Which country is Turkey's best friend in international relations?" When the pollsters reversed the question—"Which country is Turkey's number one enemy in international relations?"—the United States came in second. How did Turkey's citizens come to hold such opposing views simultaneously? In The Limits of Westernization, Perin E. Gürel explains this unique split and its echoes in contemporary U.S.-Turkey relations. Using Turkish and English sources, Gürel maps the reaction of Turks to the rise of the United States as a world-ordering power in the twentieth century. As Turkey transitioned from an empire to a nation-stat...
The Demon In Diplomacy
“This groundbreaking book is about the corruption and hypocrisy in the U.S. domestic and foreign diplomacy and not on genocide. However, the 20th Century’s first Genocide is used in the book as an example to demonstrate how the powers to be in Washington, D.C., blink at cruel injustices through the application of double standards and ethical lapses for the sake of political expediency.” “The author reveals how dishonest lobbying is dragging the United States government into the black hole of corrupt culture which eventually will destroy the nation the same way as the Roman Empire perished through rampant corruption exercised by the ruling class.”

Okur Dergisi Sayı:22 / Kasım - Aralık 2021
22. sayımızla huzurlarınızdayız. Yayıncılık dünyasında uzun bir süredir fısıltı halinde konuşulan, daha çok Türkiye Yayıncılar Birliği’nin hararetle savunduğu ve gündeme getirdiği, önümüzdeki aylarda da yasalaşması için meclise geleceği söylenilen fakat yeterince tartışamadığımız bir konu var: Kitapta sabit fiyat uygulaması. Bu uygulama yasalaşırsa, kitapları üreten yayıncılar eserleri için için tek bir satış fiyatı belirleyecek ve o kitap her yerde aynı fiyattan satılacak. Bu yasa ile zincir kitabevleri ve küçük kitapçılar desteklenmiş olacak ancak okuyucular şu an olduğu gibi %40-50-60 oranlarında indirimleri bulamayacaklar. E-t...
ATATURK AND EMPEROR MEIJI OF JAPAN, "Conversations in Heaven"
MERHABA, KONNICHIWA.. This book is about two of the most inspiring leaders of all time, Atatürk and Emperor Meiji of Japan, and the destinies of the countries they changed, Turkey and Japan. Atatürk was the founding father of the new Republic of Turkey after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, and Meiji was the 122nd Emperor of Japan who established a new system of government in Japan following the departure of the last shogun. Atatürk (1881-1938) and Meiji (1852-1912) were mirror images of one another. They both were revolutionary reformists, determined to unleash their countries from their feudal pasts into modernity. The identical reforms of Atatürk in Turkey in the 1920s and the 1930...
İzler
Bu çalışmada amacımız, bir edebi eseri müzik formunda okumak değildi. Böyle bir çaba içine de girmedik. Sadece bu alanda yapılmış pek kıymetli çalışmaları biraraya getirmeye, ustaların izini sürmeye ve meraklıları için bir yol haritası çıkarmaya çalıştık. Belki birbirinden değerli birçok araştırmanın ve yapıtın yeniden okunmalarına vesile olmak istedik. Ya da klasik batı müziğini yerleştirmek için çaba harcayanların anısına bir şeyler yapmayı diledik. Biraz Nazım Hikmet ve Enis Batur bölümlerinde kesin yargılara varmaksızın kişisel değerlendirmelere ağırlık verdik. Bu arada, Batıda müzik ve edebiyat üzerine yapılan irdelemelerden örnekler sunmayı da ihmal etmedik.
